I’ve been playing for about 8 mmonths now. I don’t really have a background in racket sports, and I’d say I’m around a 2.5 level—maybe a 3.0 on a good day. The problem is that I feel like I’ve been stuck at this level for the last four months.

I keep making the same unforced errors, and although I’ve had two coaching sessions with my club coach, I didn’t find them particularly helpful. I’ve also taken some time out to practise basic shots on my own, and I do notice that I play better afterwards, but my performances are still very inconsistent. Some days I play well, while on others I make lots of simple mistakes.

I currently play about four times a week, but I’m not really sure what I should be doing to improve. Do I just need more time, or should I be changing how I’m practising? I’d really appreciate any advice. I’m just so very frustrated with my
Performance this week and I feel like I’m just made for padel. I feel other people have progressed faster than me.
