toujours boosted by footballers, padel continues to grow in Italy with now nearly a million players.

For anyone who doubts it, the boom in padel is very real on the other side of the Alps. As the site tells us Verita&Afferi, the turnover of the activity is estimated at 700 million euros, including 460 for the rental of courts, the rest being shared between equipment and the construction of tracks. Not surprising when you know that the bar of 6 plots of padel has recently been passed! In terms of equipment, 880 palas were sold in Italy last year!

It must be said that the federation which has added the term padel in his name not long ago, and the FIP, chaired by the Italian Luigi Carraro, are no strangers to this growth. The proof is with the two tournaments Premier Padel which took place respectively in Milan and Rome, and which between them attracted more than 50 spectators!

All the lights therefore seem to be green for the padel in Italy. How far will the development of our sport go with the Transalpins?
