About Me

Recruitment Manager by day, aspiring Padel player for life.

Originally born in South Africa, I moved to the UK after completing University and fell into the world of recruitment. After being in agency for a few years, I landed a corporate job in big Tech and in 2018 after 13 years in the UK, my wife and I moved to Singapore and have lived here ever since. We started our Padel journeys in 3 July 2022 and as they say, the rest is history.

As time passed, I found myself thinking, researching and talking about Padel so much when I wasn't playing - I wanted to create a space to share my thoughts, experiences and hopefully bring some value to Padel enthusiasts everywhere. 

I started by creating playpadelsg.com which is a Padel aggregator site of sorts, and acts as a one-stop shop for all things padel related in Singapore. It has helpful information about the clubs in Singapore, all the apps players are using, Padel videos and retailers of Padel gear. Once the site was up and running - it pretty much looked after itself, so I decided to start a blog. 

I'm not sure where this will go, or how it'll evolve - but I find it a fun space to share things from my Padel world. So if you enjoy the blog - why not subscribe to it as well keep up to date by following me on Instagram. I have also started a YouTube Channel for good measure

Thank you for stopping by and here's hoping we get to meet on the court some time!
