Former World Padel Tour player turned professional coach Álex Grilo has joined Rocks Lane Padel to establish the Rocks Lane Padel Academy by Álex ‘El Mejor’ Grilo, with a firm commitment to developing the skills of beginners through to top class players.
Chris Warren, founder of Rocks Lane, said: “We are delighted that Alex has decided to use his formidable knowledge and experience to transform the padel landscape here with the formation of this flagship academy. It will cater for all standards, wheelchair players and aspiring world class players, emphasising Rocks Lane’s & Álex’s core values of inclusivity, fair play and friendship. The academy will also operate a charity to allow all players to play padel no matter their background, with scholarships available to help players reach their full potential.”
Experience
Alex reached a career high of World No 48, and partnered legendary Juan Lebron in his playing days. He hails from the epicentre of the padel world – Andalucia – and is already credited with building a successful coaching academy in Spain where he has trained players to World Padel Tour standard. With more than 20 years’ as a professional padel coach he brings a wealth of experience with him.
In his London role he is responsible for leading the Rocks Lane coaching team, delivering on-court sessions and continuing to develop training programmes. All academy lessons follow the ‘progressive teaching method’, a standardised coaching system designed by Alex and Chris to ensure that players receive high levels of tuition delivered with a consistent approach.
“Álex’s vision aligns with ours – the belief that the UK deserves a coaching system that is derived from the heart of padel – Andalusia in Spain,” added Chris. “We as a nation can then learn from the best and emulate Spain’s success at all levels of the game.”.
