Portrait of Wulan Guritno and Shalom Razade United on the Padel Court, Strengthening Mother-Child Quality Time

"I, as her mom there, am not her mom on the court, I am her padel partner. So, if she makes a wrong hit or whatever, I can't scold her," she said while laughing.

Even though there were moments of wrong hits or balls going out of the court, Wulan still chose to encourage Shalom. For Wulan, teamwork in the game is far more important than just winning. "Even though in my heart I wanted to scold her when she was out haha but it was fun," she continued.

Interestingly, even though her daughter has been playing padel for longer, Wulan feels that she can still keep up because she has a background in tennis. That experience makes it easier for her to understand the techniques in padel.

"Shalom is good, actually she has been playing padel for a long time, I’m the one who is new. But I have a tennis background, which helps there," said the former wife of Attila Syach.

However, Wulan also admits that even though she has a background in tennis, she still has to relearn because padel has different techniques and equipment. She feels challenged to continue improving her skills.

"But now, tennis and padel have differences such as the way of hitting, different rackets, and the amount of power used," she explained.

This moment of playing padel becomes a special quality time for Wulan and Shalom. By playing as partners, they learn to understand each other and build good communication.

Until now, Wulan remains active in various types of sports. However, padel provides a new experience for her, especially because it can be played with family and close friends.
