Incredible turn of events, Fabrice Pastor bids farewell to the world of padel after according to him “the betrayals” of some and the enormous disappointment to see “professional players want to keep the conditions of yesteryear“. He does not wish to be connected to the padel.

Big names from padel thanks to MCIS

Five years ago, the Monegasque entrepreneur Fabrice Pastor decided to create Monte Carlo International Sports with the sole aim of helping the growth of the Padel. To do this, he organized for the first time in the history of this sport a master's degree in the heart of Monaco, the epicenter of the main sporting events at the world level.

Not content with that, he launched another project, the Fabrice Pastor Cup, a circuit in South American lands created in order to help the young talents of this sport to take their first steps in the pros.

Franco Stupaczuk, Frederic Chingotto, Juan Tello, Lucas Campagnolo, Lucas Bergamini, Martin Di Nenno, Javier Valdes ... names that are now familiar and arrived in Europe thanks to Monte Carlo International Sports.

Once upon a time in Monte-Carlo Padel Master ...

The other ambitious project: the International Padel Tower (IPT)

For several months the Monte Carlo International Sports (MCIS) team had been working on an ambitious project, the main objective of which was to improve the conditions of professional players of padel and sport itself.

For Fabrice Pastor: "Le padel only benefited a few for a few years".

Today, 90 days after the presentation of the professional circuit that MCIS wanted to launch and finally the announcement of the World Padel Tour that he continued to maintain control for the next 5 years,

Fabrice Pastor decides to stop the International Padel Tour, as well as any activity related to padel.

The future of World Padel Tour insured at least until 2023

A bet that was not completed


The big bet was to propose another offer with the creation of an alternative circuit, which would give freedom to the players and spread in the world.

It was a different format, open, unlimited, with significant improvements in the economic level and aimed at the real professionalization of the sport, with the support of the federations and the participation of all brands ...

Monte Carlo International Sports has managed to attract more than 150 players from World Padel Tour and 100 other players from different countries. But it was not enough.

It's the end of Monte Carlo International Sport, the end of the Fabrice Pastor Cup, the end of the International Padel Tour.

Anyway, whatever we are for or against MCIS, thank you for being so invested in the padel.
