This is the big new feature that will arrive in 2026: the national 2 ! An intermediate competition that will complement the major tournaments of the year. National 2 will be like a “league 2” in football, allowing certain clubs to defend their chances elsewhere than in National 1.

So, who will play in the National 2?

At men's :

  • The clubs ranked 2nd to 8th of each Interregional Conference (East and West) 2025 will constitute the National 2
  • Ranked clubs 15th and 16th of the National 1

In women:

  • The clubs ranked 2nd, 3rd and 4th of each Interregional Conference 2025 will constitute the National 2
  • Ranked clubs 7th and 8th of the National 1

There are still some adjustments to be made for the FFT in order to make the National 2 a reality. For the time being, we also do not know which category the N2 will represent. As a reminder, the National 1 will become a P1500 (and no longer P2000) and the Interregional Conferences are P1000.

The FFT team still has more than a year to work on setting up this famous National 2 which will bring a lot of new features to the world of padel in France!

Gwenaelle Souyri

It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
