A few weeks ago, we told you the postponement of the New York Grand Master stage due to management issues that made organizing the tournament impossible. But let everyone be reassured: A1's event Padel in the heart of the Big Apple will indeed be held.

Blocked infrastructure

At the beginning of july, the circuit directed by Fabrice Pastor had announced through a press release this news. Despite the efforts made by the president of A1 Padel to maintain the initial program, management problems made organizing the tournament impossible.

For several months, the A1 team Padel as well as a group of American professionals have worked hard to allow this tournament to take place. However, the necessary authorizations for the main stadium were not validated in time by the local municipal council. The organization had to logically postpone the tournament.

Recently, A1 Padel updated their calendar by adding a tournament on a new continent. Indeed from November 19 to 25 will take place the Grand Master of Bahrain.

A tour in October

While the Verbier Master of A1 Padel has just started in Switzerland, this Tuesday, the founder of A1 Padel and CEO of Monaco International Sports, Fabrice Pastor, the president of the Yankees, Randy Levin, and the CEO of Infinity Sports, Ike Franco, gathered in New York at a press conference to announce the news.

The New York Grand Master will take place during the week of October 9-15 at the ice rink Central Park Wolman. With a capacity of over 4 spectators per match, the site will provide the perfect setting for American fans.
