Remember a few months ago we announced the launch of a somewhat special project between a sports store and padel software? Advantage-padel.net . A “very” positive assessment.
For those who do not know one or the other, here is the setting. Nice smash is a racket sports shop located in Nice and managed by Eric Cablat , a padel enthusiast. Avantage-padel.net is an application that allows clubs and players to insert new faces, create matches by level, search for partners, all this with an internal ranking that evolves according to performance.
The idea therefore came to launch in the city of Nice and its region, a group which would allow everyone to play in as many clubs as possible and above all to meet as many people as possible… of their level.
So far only What´sApp groups worked, but the overload of messages caused players to run out of steam.
With Avantage-padel, players only receive messages about matches of their level at time slots that they have chosen. And it works.
The group keeps growing and we count 50 regular players who use this system in Nice . Advantages ? Players play matches of their level against new people, clubs see new faces and therefore potential customers, and the Nice Smash store offers products such as palas, balls and other clothing.
If you live in the Nice region, do not hesitate to get in touch with Eric Cablat, who will be happy to welcome you to this “unlike any other” group.
