While he was already showing his love for this sport during the Human Padel Toulouse Open, Tony Parker continues to invest in the padel and will now participate in its development by integrating it into its academy project which should see the light of day in 2025 on the island of Vannes in Seine-Saint-Denis.

Our confreres Le Parisien teach us that six disciplines should be offered in this new “TPA”, among which the padel will have a prominent place. This structure will aim to accommodate 170 students (from middle school to post-Bac) from 2025, 35 to 50% of whom will be able to benefit from a scholarship at the request of the elected officials of Seine-Saint-Denis. As a reminder, the cost of a year of training at the Tony Parker Academy in Lyon is 25.000 euros.
