Background / Career
Ángel González has been playing padel for over 20 years. He competed at the top regional level. He even reached #1 in Castilla la Mancha (a Spanish region).

He has been a certified national coach since 2009. This means he has 15+ years coaching experience. Ángel joined the Premier Padel circuit as a coach in 2019. He first coached Alba Galan (sister of Ale Galan) and later worked with Barbara Las Heras, guiding her from 20th to 14th in the world rankings. It was with her that he gained recognition as a top coach on the circuit during the 2022 season. Together, they won in Aragon, reached a Masters final in Marbella, and numerous semi-finals in Reus, Alicante, Stockholm, and more.
In 2023, when Ari Sánchez aimed to become world number 1, she invited Ángel to join her in Barcelona for the season. In their first season together, they achieved the long-awaited title, and Ángel was named Coach of the Year 2023 at the World Padel Awards in Madrid in January 2024.
