This Saturday March 6, 2021, starts the Padel Cup MSP, with no less than 115 teams entered in Amateurs, Elite, for a total of more than 2000 athletes, including the famous former professional football player of Fiorentina, David Pizarro.
David Pizarro will participate in this padel tournament
Corriere Della Sera (Rome) informs us that David Pizarro registered for the 6th edition of the Padel MSP Cup and will proudly wear Sol's colors Padel. A good enough reason to go and check if he has the same determination on a padel court as on a football pitch!
Behind this tournament, MSP Italia is responsible for communicating about padel and promoting it at a national level, with all the regions competing until the final, initially scheduled for around June/July.
For the 2021 edition of this Club Cup, the newspaper Corriere Dello Sport-Stadio and the Lazio region, present as a patron, will be hand in hand to promote padel. This XXL tournament will be an additional opportunity to promote this sport!
In fact, in Italy, padel attracts more and more people, with former Calcio football players such as Candela, Totti, De Rossi, Vieri… in addition to David Pizarro. Footballers also seem to be interested, like Claudia Ciccotti and Giada Greggi, who have been seen but on the side of the spectators for the moment. It was during Roma Cares.
A huge craze around padel
Last year the Padel Cup MSP had 75 participating teams. This year, the number has literally exploded, bringing to 115 the number of registered teams at the tournament. Impressive! 24 groups have been created to distribute this incredible total of participating teams as well as possible.
Each team includes male and female teams, including mixed male / female teams. Claudio briganti, responsible for Padel MSP Italia affirms in the pages of Corriere dello Sport-Stadio :
“The numbers recorded have been a great satisfaction for all of us. Knowing that 115 teams have decided to join the Club Cup is a testament to how padel is a sport on the rise and how much the work done in recent years has been appreciated. It has not been and still is not an easy time due to the health crisis, but we believe that sport and in particular padel, where there is no contact between teammates or opponents, can represent an important social activity”.
