After Union Sport & Cycle and many sports halls, it's the turn of the FFT to take legal action against the prefectural decrees regarding the closures of indoor tennis courts. Will indoor padel clubs be part of the FFT procedures?

At the origin of this rant, the president of the French Tennis Federation, Bernard Giudicelli, who strongly criticizes these prefectural decisions which force the closure of tennis halls and which undermine entire sections of the tennis economy .

Indoor tennis structures are thus completely closed, especially those classified in high alert zones because of covid-19.

Coronavirus - The FFT wants to reopen the clubs

For Bernard Giudicelli, the prefectural decrees are “disproportionate“. Note however, that the President of the FFT spoke about tennis on the BFM Business set. Padel was not discussed. Moreover, we hope that the FFT will succeed in obtaining a result before the administrative courts as early as the end of next week similar to those seen in Toulouse or Rennes in recent days.

Indeed, "650 m² for 2 people“, With“no physical contact" “There is no risk of the virus circulating”Concludes the President.
