The Joy of Padel podcast with Victor and William Dial
Victor Dial was a pioneering player of padel. He started in the 1970s, and played on the original Corcuera court. He also played with many celebrities over the years. His other son, my half-brother William, is a very accomplished padel player. Both have good stories and enjoy the culture of padel.
Victor Dial is my father and a lifelong player of all racquet sports, including lawn tennis, real (court) tennis and squash, before becoming a padel tennis enthusiast. He had a long career in the automotive industry, rising to be Chairman and GM of Ford France, then VP of Sales and Marketing at Peugeot Worldwide. Simultaneously, he was Chairman, and then CEO as well of the American Hospital of Paris. He was board member for many companies and lived the majority of his adult life in Europe, between the UK, Belgium, France, Switzerland and Spain. In 1988, he was awarded the Legion of Honor by the government of France. To hear more about his life and career, check out this podcast with him.
William Dial, my half-brother, is a very accomplished lawn tennis player who picked up padel very early in life. He reached a competitive level of lawn tennis in his 20s and is now a bona fide good padel player. He is presently founder and CEO at PROMOREAL Real Estate Investment Fund, based out of Madrid. Here’s William’s LinkedIn profile and his Instagram.
