P100 Mixed
First it was 10 Mixed Pairs that fought on Friday night to see a Mixed Tournament high fly.
After group matches where conviviality, sharing and fun did not prevent a bit of competition spirit, it's the couple in the city and on the slopes formed by Charlotte Burgensis and François Authier, the "teacher Of the club that wins the Final against Camille Martinet and Benoit Torck

P250 Ladies
On Sunday, despite a last-minute package, there is also a large crowd with 11 motivated pairs from 9h30 to compete for the title.

In the semifinal, despite obvious progress recently and a great fighting spirit, Elsa Curtenaz / Clothilde Carnein and Hélène Faure / Marie Giraudet will have to settle for the small final won by the first named.

In the grand final, despite a strong resistance from Christelle Dubreuil and Cindy Peyre, the logic of the ranking will be respected with the victory of Camille Martinet associated with Valérie Beaur.

Among the Lyonnaise regulars, whom it is always pleasant to meet and see playing, it is worth noting the friendly and charming presence of several pairs from Clermont-Ferrand and Grenoble. Ladies, Bravo and thank you so much for your competitiveness and good humor, despite the kilometers, you have to persist, the tournaments of padel feminine need you!

P500 Gentlemen
Record rush for this season: 32 pairs have wanted to fight this weekend.

Before the final stages where the 4 best ranking pairs were waiting, it was first necessary on Saturday to go through preflights gathering 28 teams.

In this little game, Francois Authier and Joffrey Gilant beat Thomas Clement and Romain Vieillard during the qualifying round. The latter were even forced to trade his usual Big Mac against a baguel double menu served spicy ... ..

For their part, the recent winner of the P500 Clermont, Justin Marlot - Benoit Chauvet continued their winning streak against Camilo Ramirez and Vivien Faure Millot.

For their part, the brothers John and Steven Martel, regularly designated scarecrows tables given their rank far from their level of play, had overcome the talent and patience of the duo Thibault Perreon Florian Reynet. Some even argued that it was better to play against a wall than against the Martel brothers, the ball coming back less often ...

Finally, Pierre Gadras and Maxime Boch dryly respected the hierarchy by beating Nicolas Chauvin and Maxime Vincent.

Sunday, place on the final table where as soon as they enter the track, the 2 series heads (Benjamin Joulot - Jeremy Dutoit) and 3 (David Miotto - Jen Yves Levrat) are eliminated. The place of finalist of this high of the table will be finally obtained by Chauvet-Marlot against the Martel brothers at the super tie break.

At the bottom of the table if Norman Sanchez and Michael Gonguet moved quietly in the semifinals, we needed a super perilous break after the loss of the first set for Yohan Potron and Pierre Etienne Morillon to join them. Bis repeated for the Franco-Swiss pair in the semifinal who gets his ticket after the suspense.

After their victory last week and qualifying the day before, this hard-won final may be the match too many for Chauvet-Marlot who could not do anything against the superiority of Morillon-Potron who won the final victory in two sets and leave in addition to the prize money with a nice endowment from the sponsors (Alexandre Romieu, Babolat, K1speed karting)
