Inaugurated on December 14, 2013 in the company of its sponsor Didier Deschamps, the Royal Riviera Padel Club and its 2 courts padel was created thanks to Andrew Knox (passionate about padel for over 10 years) and Christian Collange (director of the Tennis Soleil club).

Located on the heights of Monaco in a green setting in Beausoleil, the club is hosted by Kristina CLEMENT one of the best French players in padel who went to refine her knowledge of padel with the Spanish Federation of Padel during numerous stays.

At the end of a year of existence, the club has a hundred regular players and the courts of padel are busy from morning to night.

Many events embellish club life:

* tournaments padel regular (one every 2 months), which brings together around 30 teams each time. the next one will take place on March 28 and 29

* an inter-company challenge allowing local companies to present teams and compete against each other to determine the winner (12 companies have registered for the 2015 edition)

* Last year the club hosted big names from padel for clinics and exhibition matches such as the multiple world champion Paula Eyheraguibel and Nito Brea, Argentine coach and coach for the Argentine women's team and will certainly see great players coming soon, especially with the WPT stage scheduled for September in Monaco.

The project would be to have additional courts soon to be able to meet the growing demand for padel at the club… To be continued!
