Since the circuit A1 Padel suspended its calendar, many players find themselves in a difficult situation. No more upcoming tournaments, no guaranteed pay, and a huge uncertainty about the future. To continue playing, many of them have decided to try their luck on Premier Padel.

But for these A1 players, the transition to this circuit is not without difficulty.

Failed qualifications in Asunción

Au P2 of Asuncion, several players from A1 Padel tried to go through the qualifications. Among them:

  • Santiago Rolla / Facundo Lopez,
  • Maxi Sánchez Blasco / Fede Chiostri, finalists of the FIP Bronze in Mendoza two weeks ago.

Sadly, none of these pairs managed to qualify for the main draw. The level is high, and above all, their lack of points in the FIP ranking makes things even more complicated.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
