No truce for the French! While the circuit Premier Padel is on summer break,  several French players have signed up for the FIP Tour  to gain points and international experience. This week,  three tournaments  with a fine French delegation are on the program:  FIP Silver and Bronze Portimao (Portugal)  and the  FIP Bronze Jersey (United Kingdom) .

FIP Silver Portimao

There is only one male table on this FIP Silver,  Benjamin Tison and Bastien Blanqué  will face a pair that qualified in the first round before perhaps a clash in the second round against  Javi Ruiz and Facu Dominguez. 

 Nicolas Rouanet  made the trip and will be  associated with the young Belgian Isaac Huysveld , they will face  Diego Garcia and Santi Pineda (TS7)  in the first round.

FIP Bronze Portimao

No women's table on the FIP Silver but a  table on the Bronze category,  we find there  Laura Buteau and her Portuguese partner Luisa Roque  who will be struggling with the  seeded 4  of the tournament  Maria Perez and Claudia Montero. 

 Camille Sireix and Melissa Martin  are once again associated, they will have a more affordable first round against  Hechenberger/Casali , all the same  seeded 6 in this FIP Bronze. 

FIP Bronze Jersey

It's certain  the British island of Jersey where we find the largest French delegation  this week, in fact, on the women's side  Léa Godallier  made the trip with the Spanish Patricia Fortun.  They will be  seeded 1  of the tournament and receives a bye in the first round, just like  Carla Touly and Camilla Fassio  which form the  seeded 2  of the tournament.

 Fiona Ligi  will start in the first round with the Dutch  Maaike Betz  do what  Smith/Torres , it represents a  third hope for a good run for France  in this feminine painting.

On the male side,  several 100% French pairs  are engaged,  Julien Seurin  will be associated with  Manuel Vives  who is returning to the slopes after several months of injury. They will be  seeded 8  and will face  Kamel Mouimen and Julien Biron  in a French-French duel in the first round.

 Yoan Boronad and Adrien Maigret  are teaming up for this tournament and will face the British pair  Harris/Salisbury  in the first round,  a Franco-British duel  which will also be the case for  Philémon Raichman and Arthur Hugounenq  who will face  Smith/Gilbert for their entry into the competition. 

 Two French people  lesser known of the circuit are also registered,  Rafael Marquet  with Zar Lasahido and  Ludovic Hutzemakers  with Cameron Dollimore.
