In which leagues are the TOP 100?

With the data analysis carried out by your consultant and columnist Gilles Fiolet, we will try to offer you regular analyzes on the evolution of the padel in numbers. Which leagues bring together the most players from padel of the top 100?

In July 2019, the league PACA wins the palm in the ladies as in the men. 20% of 100 tops are in this league. Compared to previous years, it is obviously less than today. There are still 5 years, the majority of the best French players were almost all in the south of France, especially in the south-east.

Today, the general level of padel French is very good in many leagues:

  • League Ile de France
  • League Occitania
  • Ligue Haut de France
  • New Aquitaine League
  • And the ARA league, a little more behind.

We can see that the north is catching up with the south in terms of players, but also in terms of level which can be seen during the French Championships in padel and in the selections of the French teams of padel.

  • You forget that many PACA players have taken a license in another league to have more chances to qualify for the championships of France ...

    • You're totally right. Let's say that we haven't forgotten anything ... But it turns out that in all the main leagues including the PACA league, players go to other leagues to try their luck and participate in the French championships of Padel. And we felt that we were in balance except for a few players.
