Du  6 at 15 March 2026 , France will vibrate to the rhythm of  Deer Padel Tour , a national solidarity tour led by Antoine, who suffers from the  Berger's disease (IgA nephropathy) , a chronic kidney disease that is still too little known.

A personal project that has become a collective one, with a clear ambition:  raising awareness of kidney disease and raising funds for research and patient support .

 A Tour de France shaped like a kidney 

The concept is powerful: one stage per day, in different French cities, with a symbolic GPS track drawing the shape of a kidney on the map of the territory.

Confirmed dates and cities:

  •  March 6 – Nancy (Vidapadel) 
  •  March 7 – Reims (Padelshot) 
  •  March 8 – Lille (4Padel) 
  •  March 9 – Angers (Playground Angers) 
  •  March 10 – Bordeaux (4Padel) 
  •  March 11 – Montpellier (Tennis Padel Castries Club) 
  •  March 12 – Rest 
  •  March 13 – Aix-en-Provence (WinWin Padel) 
  •  March 14 – Lyon (Padelshot Saint-Genis-Laval) 
  •  March 15 – Paris (4Padel Boulogne-Billancourt) 

Each step will take the form of a  Amateur tournament (Men/Women/Mixed) , accessible and friendly, with a strong health dimension: information stands, presence of associations, health professionals, activities and awareness.

 A transparent and supportive model 

Operation is simple:

  • Registered at  €40 including  €10 donated to the Rein association Padel Tour 
  • The funds raised will be redistributed to research and support projects, with secure management via  Payasso Crédit Mutuel guaranteeing transparency and traceability.

Beyond registration, additional actions will be put in place: raffles, mini solidarity games, donation stands, local partnerships.

 An exceptional finale in Paris 

The highlight of the tour will take place on  Sunday, March 15th at 4Padel Boulogne-Billancourt , with an exceptional “Galacticos” meeting bringing together personalities and elite players.

Goal :  maximize national visibility and achieve a major final fundraising round .

And good news:  Padel Magazine will be present in Paris on Sunday, March 15th to cover the latest event  and to highlight this initiative which is both sporting and profoundly human.

 A project that goes beyond sport 

The Kidney Padel Tour is part of the  Kidney Week 2026  and perfectly embodies what padel can offer at its best: connection, sharing and concrete commitment.

The message is clear: to transform an invisible disease into a visible, unifying and useful project.

March 2026 is shaping up to be a big moment for French padel and for solidarity.
