To date, 4487 approvals have been carried out since the start of the 2023 sports year, i.e. since the start of the 2022 school year.

For comparison, there were 2 sanctioned tournaments as of this date last year.

The competition is gaining momentum in the French padel sphere, which proves the significant development of our sport.

4487 tournaments in eight months, this means that more than 18 events take place every day in France, or even 130 per weekend if these tournaments took place only on Saturdays or Sundays, which is not the case.
