After living in the United States for 8 years, he currently serves as the Director of the Registry of Padel Professional (RPP) for USA and LATAM (Latin America), where he provides certified courses for padel instructors and advises investors and new clubs on the padel business. This dedication ensures that Alfonso remains at the forefront of coaching practices and can provide high-quality training and guidance to aspiring padel coaches.
As a player, he achieved a remarkable feat in 2017 by becoming the champion of the National Teams Championship.
