Question for a P100 anyone can register that he or she is French N ° 4 or not?
ditto for the other categories?
Which player in tel tournament category? For example, can the first Belgian player play p250 personally? I have never played a tournament. Can I register in which category? Thanks, have a good day
Hello, dsl I did not understand your message. But basically anyone can do tournaments padel (all categories) Except the top 250 for the P100 and top 100 for the P250. Have a good day.
The first Belgian player must request an equivalence from the FFT to avoid him and to avoid the other players too much difference in level on the tournaments of padel P100 and P250.
