For a while now in France, it has only been possible to play tennis and padel outdoors. Measures that have allowed a club breton to see a rapid increase in the number of padel players.

Outdoor padel courts help attract a new audience. In Tennis Padel Concarneau (TPC), the members of the tennis club have tried this new practice and unanimously approved.

Their first feelings about playing padel are in the same vein as what we hear on the sidelines of the courts. In this case, that it is a sport “Fun, affordable, and easier to have fun at first than tennis.”

With Covid, it is only possible to use the outdoor or semi-covered courts. At the TPC, the two padel courts have found their audience, and there is no longer any concern about filling them.

Indeed, in this difficult period, padel allows people whose favorite sport is impossible in these times of health restrictions to continue to keep fit physically...while having fun!

In the TPC club, padel is initially practiced as a leisure activity, but as this situation brings people to padel, the club will quickly offer courses, according to one of the club's coaches.

We see here that it is entirely possible to develop a tennis club with padel without this being a hindrance to tennis, but rather a different, complementary offer, which allows another audience to be attracted to the clubs.
