El futuro del pickleball latinoamericano está aquí |Aline Morales, Top 3 junior del mundo

0:00Residents, we are here with one of the future youth promises, Mexican, but a promise of the world in reality. Alin Morales, welcome. How are you, Alin? Tell us. And your medal? What happened to My medal. My medal and the medal they are going to give me. Mom, your medal. Mother Miriam. Tell us, why are you here at the PPA today, Alien? Ah, well today I got to play Mixed Juniors. This tournament was really important because it

0:33was the finals, only the top eight qualified, so it was really difficult to get a medal. Ah, and here we are. Okay. For those who don't know much about it, who are listening to us for the first time, what are the finals? How would you rate it? Are these tournaments you have to play during the year? What are the rankings for this place? Ah, you play tournaments throughout the year and

1:01whoever accumulates the most points, that is, you have to finish on the podium in those tournaments to accumulate a lot of points and thus be able to go to the finals. Perfect. Well, congratulations! I know you're very good, you 're probably not so happy with the bronze because I know you're capable of winning gold, but congratulations. Tell us, Alin, where you're from, how old you are , how long you've been playing

1:25Pckel, and what your goals are. Tell us about yourself so people can get to know you. Perhaps in the future you might hear from a sponsor who, who knows, might send you an offer thanks to the residents here at Pique 2's house. I think so. Well, I'm 15 years old, I'm from Xapas and Huatanejo, and I think I've been playing for 5 years. And honestly, my dream is to be a

1:52professional Pobol player, to be like one of the best, right? Like Anna Lee, but left-handed, but left-handed, but left-handed. It's true. Who says she can't be his partner in the future? Okay, that would be fine, right? Everything is possible. Everything is possible with hard work, you know? Work, train, and discipline. That's very important for everyone too, so they know. Please, if you want to dedicate yourself to this sport professionally, you must

2:18have discipline when it comes to training. Okay. I was fortunate enough to play with Alín in the World Cup to represent Mexico. It was my mixed pairing and it was truly a pleasure. It was like playing with an adult much more mature than many of the partners I've had, and it was truly a pleasure. I feel that you have potential, you have the desire, you have the intelligence and most importantly you have the maturity.

2:45So, I hope you do very well, I hope you continue to achieve those goals because I see you winning all the time, you're winning bronze, you're winning gold, you have your partner Rex and your partner Jida who are doing very well. I know these were the finals, but what was your last ranking of the year? Because last time I think you were pregnant with two, weren't you? Female. For the double woman. Uh-huh

3:13Ah, in the PPA. In the PPA. Yes, I think I came in third place in Juniors. Third. And mixed ones. I came in fourth in the mixed category. Room. Okay. And singles? Do you like playing singles? Ah, yes I like it, but since in Itapa, Guantanejo I don't have anyone to train with in singles, well, it's not, I feel it's not my strong suit. And in the future, would you like to move with

3:37your family, for example, to the United States or somewhere in Mexico, for example, Los Cabos, which is more convenient? People who can really help you reach that level, because like what I talked about with you, I talked about with your mom, I mean, I think you already have the mindset and everything, and you have it more than some professionals, but many times what you need are repetitions, you know?

3:59No matter how strong your mindset is, no matter how mature you are, if you don't compete and if you don't train with people who are constantly challenging you, you can't improve. So what happens? I saw a tournament here, a qualifier, and the pace, the rhythm of the ball is completely different, right? So, what do you think about that? Yes, I really think so. Ah, I can train a lot and yes, of course, in the future

4:21I would like to move here to the United States . I think the game is a little different, and not only between Mexico and the United States, but in all parts of the world. I think everyone has their own playing style, and I would like to learn from all styles. Clear. And I was talking to your mom and I 've also seen what you post on Instagram. I see you sometimes train in

4:47Utah with Alice Jones, right? And with Kie. Tell us about that experience, what difference do you feel when you actually train or take a class with a professional like them, right? Yes, it's truly amazing to train with them. This is something I don't usually do, so every time I go to Uta to train with them, I make the most of it. Do you have any advice or tips that they gave you that you can share

5:17with the residents who are listening? something that has stayed with you. Being aggressive. The game is changing from being aggressive. Yes. I don't particularly agree with how the game is changing. Your mom told us that you used to play basketball, you didn't play any racket sports. It wasn't good. She was good. Hey, do you have any plans to play the US Open this year? Ah, I don't know yet. I don't have one yet. Are you

5:49thinking about it? Are you still thinking? I hope so. Talk to your mom. This is an official invitation. If you want to come a week before training starts, before the tournament begins, you can come to my house, I'll organize something for you to train with high-level people. I have friends who are 55 and 60. We can organize something really cool, and if you want, we can even play a 5-0

6:10mixed doubles match, just you and me. Seem to you? No, no, no, no, no, no. I was going to do it, I was going to ask for that. I was going to ask him to play with me. I don't feel it. The Split Age, you know? The young man with the old man. I am the one you're going to play with. No, but you need to be 50. You're not 50 yet. Oh, right, I forgot.

6:28But I still look 50. I 'm already old. Hey Alin, thank you so much for giving us your time. It's a pleasure. Since I met you at the World Cup, I've been impressed, as I said, especially by your maturity and how beautifully you play, how you understand the game, and how patient you can be. Sometimes I've noticed that now that I've seen you play a bit more, you're being much more aggressive, and I truly

6:52wish you all the best. If we can help you with anything, I hope someone who can open doors for you to keep growing sees this episode, I really hope so. By the way, tell them, tell them where they can follow you, for example, your social media or something like that. You can follow me on my Instagram, I'm @alin . Morales.

Tomorrow I'm going to the finals. Ah, okay. I mean, the women's gold medal match . Of double women. Well, good luck and let's go for that gold! Goodbye, residents. Thank you. Opa.
