This is the story of a bet on the project of padel participatory by the Aude Tennis Committee. It is certainly a first in the history of this sport in France.

Why this project?

The Aude Tennis Committee and its President Nicolas Miguel dare to bet on a structure dedicated to padel in Aude because there is no suitable sports infrastructure in the Aude department.

Problem: The finances do not allow to finance this project of padel. Yet the Chairman of the Aude Tennis Committee, Nicolas Miguel is a passionate and fervent defender of padel in his region. The idea is therefore to involve all lovers of this sport to allow the creation of a site of padel in Trèbes.

"The current economic situation is pushing the Aude Committee to deploy its own resources to develop the padel by using the crowdfunding system, by setting up an online raffle for which superb prizes are to be won ! "

"The padel, being a new discipline integrated into the Federation, I am aware that it is unfortunately not yet recognized for its fair value but our team of volunteers really wants to give it its full place within our Department of Aude. "

"The Aude Committee has modest means, but the wealth lies elsewhere, in ideas, will, and initiatives." explains Nicolas Miguel.

What is this project?

"Our association would like today to create a public departmental sports center made up of several courts of padel, for our clubs and our licensees. This would allow many athletes to no longer have to travel too far to practice a sport they love."

"This structure is located in Trèbes, seat of the Aude de l'Aude committee, in the heart of the Aude department, which will itself be at the heart of the greater Languedoc Roussillon Midi Pyrénées region."

Indeed, the Committee is already making great strides regarding this project, since it has already recently obtained an agreement in principle from the town hall to use land in Trèbes concerning the project. padel.
