Padel Smash Academy

In this episode of the Padel Smash Academy Podcast, Cesc and Julian sit down with Sergio Ortiz, owner of the Houston Volts and one of the true pioneers of Padel in the United States.

Sergio shares his incredible journey through the sport — from his roots as a passionate player to becoming President of the USPA, and now leading one of the Pro Padel League's standout teams. They discuss the explosive growth of the PPL, what it takes to build the largest Padel facility in the USA right in the heart of Texas, and his vision for the future of the sport in North America.

This episode is packed with insight, passion, and a behind-the-scenes look at what it means to build Padel from the ground up in the U.S.
