Coaches at Marbella Fitness Academy

Calle Knutsson

I’m Calle Knutsson and I’m a padel player. Playing professional padel is an amazing lifestyle which comes with freedom but also a lot of responsibility. A lot of my time I spend training and competing in Spain. Padel is more established there which means tougher competitions and more possibilities to train and compete with the best players in the world.

The challenges are many and the competition is tough. Being Swedish I am one of a few players from my country that are trying to push our limit towards the best in the world. There is always a chance to win, and I will take that chance. Together with my team I’m enjoying the process of developing both as a padel player and as a person.

The season of 2022 includes both international outside Sweden and national tournaments back home. As always, many thanks to all of my sponsors and partners. They are the ones that make my journey possible and you can see them all scrolling further down on this page. If you want to follow me and my journey, follow my account @calleknutsson on Instagram.
