Pro's Quote of the Month

PRO'S QUOTE OF THE MONTH

By John Milbank

"The Greater majority of the best paddle players in the Country are 35 years or much older.

This proves that paddle is more about the mental aspect of competition than it is about the talent/physical aspects of competition.

It also shows that you do not need to be a young, great athlete to excel at the game.

This clearly shows that: Paddle is More a Game of Will than Skill".
