Le padel and me, it's a story that is beginning to date, since my first counter-walls date from the spring of 2007.
I have fabulous memories of my first part of padel, performed as a mixed “after-work”: surrounded by work colleagues, I discovered a new sport, in decompression mode, a stone's throw from home.
I document myself, meet people at will and slowly but surely immerse myself in the culture padel who reigns around here.
I open my eyes and realize that there is a club of padel at every street corner, or rather at every corner of Industrial Zone.
Back on earth: my tennis technique, my schedule and my age will not allow me to evolve in competition.
It was in 2009 that the idea of doing something for the padel in France is taking shape.
From 2010, and after having watched a good part of the videos of the Padel Pro tour (the ancestor of World Padel Tour, disappeared in 2012), I discovered Padel Magazine.
This is the click: aficionados of padel in France do exist, what a joy to see that their community is accessible and dynamic!
It is in 2012 that I take the plunge and decide to participate in the assembly of a club in France.
At the time, the weak presence and weak development of padel in France call out to me.The club opened its doors in 2014 and is doing well in the French landscape of clubs of padel opened after 2010.
Participate in the development of padel in France via a club does not satisfy my curiosity and my passion for our beloved sport.
My network of relationships is growing and from 2015, I decide to share and relay on the Twitter network (@BuzzPadel) a maximum of news around the phenomenon padel outside of Spain.
I put the planet padel listening and everything goes: figures, clubs, players, results, tournaments, training, news. brands, federation etc.
Like my guru F. Binisti, many contacts welcome the initiative because for the moment, the publications dealing with news. 100% padel in multilanguage are rare commodities.
