Le padel knowing only the beginning of its exceptional rise, Padel Magazine offers you to recontextualize the TV broadcast according to the continents!

Europe, a well-established distribution

Today, depending on the country, the situation is changing in terms of dissemination and consideration of the media vis-à-vis the padel. Take the example of Italy, where recently have been broadcast (from the quarter-finals) all matches of World Padel Tour on the chain Sky Italy. Evidence of a fan base expanding exponentially in Italian territory, or the padel knows it must be said one unprecedented boom.

Regarding the Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland and Norway), the situation is similar. Through Viaplay Sports, which is an online platform, you have the opportunity to follow all the final stages live. 

For Belgium, it is the group Telenet who is responsible for the distribution. Possessing the chains Eleven Pro League, Eleven Sports or even VOO Sport world, there is a fairly substantial dissemination potential. However, at present, only the finals of the WPT are broadcast in the hope of more coverage of the competitions in the future.

The Spanish audiovisual landscape, too, is well represented through Gol TV FREE national television channel that broadcasts the matches of WPT for the fifth consecutive year. Hundreds of thousands of Spaniards can therefore, once again this year, enjoy two semi-finals on Saturday morning, as well as two finals (ladies and gentlemen) on Sunday.

The arrival of Canal +, a boon for France ... and Africa

As surprising as it may seem, the padel in France does not currently have a distribution allowing it to expand its audience within the French landscape. However, things are about to change.

With the imminent arrival of the group Canal +, we can think that the “wave padel”Risk of taking everything in its path. Undoubtedly, new people will fall in love with this wonderful discipline, and will participate in its development. Another important point to remember? The fact that the Canal + group has acquired “world” broadcasting rights, which means that the channel will be able to offer the padel across all of its territories. In particular with an impressive panel of distribution areas in Sub-Saharan Africa (the channel being available in more than 25 countries), it is very clear that the padel is likely to experience strong growth on this continent and why not, to become the market for padel of tomorrow.

Passionate about football, I discovered the padel in 2019. Since then, it's been crazy love with this sport to the point of abandoning my favorite sport.
