The curtain fell on the second edition of the summer tournament with the Open GAIA Group  which was held on July 3, 4 and 5 at  TC Dardilly Champagne , padel land on the outskirts of Lyon.

Bronkhorst / Bergaud and Ledant / Vincent: Victorious!

On a purely sporting level, in ladies, it’s  Morgane Bronkhorst associated with Laurine Bergaud who won  brilliantly on Sunday the female table while at the gentlemen  Maxime Vincent retained his title  alongside this time of  Jean-Charles Ledant  after 3 breathless days of competition.

While the sun was invited for the weekend, it is not less than  22 pairs, ladies and gentlemen,  who had gathered on the two tracks of the TCDC to register their name on the prize list of the event sponsored by  GAIA Group. 

Tournaments and events: Winning formula

As every year, the Lyonnais club had focused on welcoming the competitors by providing them individually. But not only ! Indeed, always motivated by the firm desire to please the players, the organizers had planned to organize a nimations in parallel with the tournament  culminating in an evening on Saturday.

As a reward for their efforts, the members of the TCDC padel commission had the pleasure of seeing the players extend the tournament well after the last shots of the palas in a festive and friendly atmosphere. It is a source of pride that is always more motivating to bring to life  Padel in West Lyon  for a dynamic team that will continue to add new volunteers at the start of the school year.

Let it be said, padel is doing well in Dardilly and the whole team is already looking forward to seeing all the padel players in Lyon next year for a summer tournament that is intended to become a permanent fixture and to be included in the calendar every first weekend in July.
