Six FIP Tour tournaments in France this season?

This is the second time that France has organized a FIP GOLD, after the one proposed to Perpignan in 2022. However, the Lyon tournament will add a women's competition, which is a first. And we will find David Matéo, as sports manager of the tournament.

The other good news is the municipality's commitment over a period of three years, thus guaranteeing the holding of the FIP GOLD LYON from 2024 to 2026.
