Hooray! The Padel is in the process of passing a course in France. The players multiply, the tournaments of padel abound more and more. Some clubs padel sometimes offer tournaments almost every week. Is it good for gamers? Good for clubs padel ? This is what we will try to see.

First, first observation, the time when you had to look for a tournament padel near home is over! And that's been a bye now. Since 2015/2016, we see tournaments of padel offered in almost every French region. And this, regularly. A very good point. But some areas, much more than others such as the Paris region or the PACA OCCITANIE and FLANDERS region.

Nothing unusual so far, since for the moment the majority of players are in these regions, but it happens that there is an overabundance of tournaments of padel in a region or even, more generally in France.

The French Tennis Federation has not remained inactive since it has already restricted the tournaments of padel P100 categories and to limit tournaments padel P1000 (Minimum 3 courts of padel and 1 P1000 per weekend). But some of these measures are not unanimous. For others, the measures do not go far enough.

Our idea: Offer regions the possibility of managing the tournaments themselves. padel, and this whatever the type of category. Because it is not really about categories of tournaments, but about number of tournaments on a zone at the same time.

And you what do you think ?
