At the Loupetis family, in Perpignan, we are crazy about padel. So much so that she built her own land of padel last June… in his Garden!

The whole family has the virus. We had a wasteland tennis court. So we said to ourselves that having a padel in his garden, it was all the same high class.

Tells us Dimitri Loupetis, young player of padel who started at Padel Club du Mas in Perpignan.

Indeed, it already needed a lot and a location. And precisely, the family had that.

We originally had a derelict tennis court with tall grass. The surface had loose chippings… It was unplayable. So my father, a padel decides to launch the project padel at home. It's crazy, and yet that's what happened.

1 week after having put forward the idea and seen the possibilities with the land builders of padel, the case was heard. The LOUPETIS PADEL ARENA was born!

As there are 4 of us with my 2 brothers, my father and I, it's perfect for playing a good game.

Adds Dimitri, who hopes to develop his game padel with the ambition to create a career around this sport.

Unfortunately, we don't have enough space to create a second pitch. On the other hand, perhaps we will be offering Touch Tennis at the end of the year, a little-known sport (Sport which is played with a foam ball and where we hit very hard) soon at home.

Concludes Dimitri.

High class !
