Where We Play

Meet Your Coaches

Niccolò Novella

Retreat Host & Former Coach of FM

Born in Italy in 1997, Niccolò brings a lifetime of athletic passion to the court. With deep roots in competitive tennis and over 7 years of experience as a Padel specialist and instructor both in Italy and abroad, he holds a clear vision: Padel is not merely a sport of precision and strategy, but a powerful social catalyst and a lifestyle.

His journey in this world is intrinsically linked to the very origins of our reality. Niccolò worked alongside Francesco and Alberto right from the day the academy opened, taking those first crucial steps with them and helping shape its core teaching philosophy.

What's Included

Founder & Head Coach

Hi, I’m Francesco Mendo, a professional Padel coach with over eight years of experience and a deep passion for developing players of all levels. I hold a degree in Sports Science and the top Padel Certification with the Italian federation (FITP).

My coaching journey began in Spain in Mallorca, where I had the opportunity to work with top-level players and gain a strong foundation in technical, tactical, physical, and mental training while I was competing at the top National levels. I later brought this experience to Dubai, where I founded FM Padel Academy with the goal of creating a dynamic environment that combines professional methodology with community spirit.
