Hey, I’m Tom. I’m a padel coach based in Essex, and one of the newest faces in the Padel Vibes ambassador family.

I found padel in summer 2024 and it did what padel does best. It hooked me fast. Since then, I’ve been on a mission to play more, learn faster, and bring more people into the sport.

Most weeks you’ll find me bouncing between different clubs and sessions, playing with a proper mix of styles and levels, including some very good players who keep me honest.

I compete in tournaments, I show up for socials, and I’m always chasing that next small improvement. Getting better is addictive, but it’s the people that make padel stick.

I’m a British Padel Coaches Association (BPCA) accredited coach, and my coaching is structured, practical, and built around results you can feel in match play.

I focus on technique, smart tactics, and clear progression. Whether you’re brand new or sharpening your competitive edge, I tailor every session to your goals so you leave with a plan, not just a sweat.

Alongside playing and competing, I help run leagues, tournaments, and social sessions for the community we’ve built in Essex.

It’s now 100+ players strong across different ages, styles, and levels, with one thing in common: the energy keeps people coming back

Why I partner with Padel Vibes

Fast rallies demand trust in your setup. For me, a tacky feel and a firm hold without sacrificing comfort is non-negotiable.

That’s why Padel Vibes makes sense. LuxeTac is my go-to overgrip. Its grip and feel are spot on, the comfort keeps you locked in, and the whole brand is built around playing bold, not pretending you never miss.

That’s Bold Within™.

How I work with new players

Before we get started, I’m always happy to chat through a coaching plan and I’ll ask you to complete a short questionnaire so I can understand your level in advance and plan sessions properly from day one.
