The World Junior of padel 2019 in Castellon, Spain got off to an incredible start “with a very good atmosphere". We are still in the pool matches and France can hope to reach the main table of the competition for girls and boys.

Girls: A very good introduction

Yesterday, we lived in live with the girls an opposition against Brazil which will remain in the annals of this world of minors. A French victory 2 / 1 including a 3e decisive match where France saves 2 match balls before winning in 3 sets. A point that is worth the gold since it allows France to beat the 1 seed of his group and consider a first place in his group.

The girls' captain Patrick Fouquet can be proud of his team. “We managed a big blow against the Brazilian women. We could not dream better to get into the competition. Now, it will be necessary especially not to relax and confirm facing nations supposed to be a little less strong on paper".

Next step Italy to 10h15. Italy, who did not play yesterday, is back in the tournament this morning.

Boys can still hope!

In the men, our French could not cope with the Paraguayan steamroller. Defeat 3 / 0.

Alexis Salles, the captain of the boys, best summarizes this opposition: "We caught lightning against Paraguay ... I'm still in shock as I found their team impressive. It will be necessary to remobilize the troops before the meeting against the USA".

At 14h, our boys will play against USA who beat Sweden 2 / 1.

In front of the Americans, it will be already a small final of the group. If France wins, it is reviving to get this famous second place of the group synonymous with qualification for quarters and therefore the main draw.

See you at 14h.

"A great day when France still has its destiny in hand"Concludes" the nanny "of the team and"official ambianceur"Eric Quillet.
