Who does not know "Padel Arena”, the club of Rouen, or more precisely of Isnauville, a town that many of us have discovered thanks to this club.

At the helm, grandfathers from padel French from now on, Julien Frères, François Preterre and Maxime Gautrié.

The three founders of the center look back on their journey and their ambitions on the occasion of the P1000 Padel Arena – BMW Horizon.

Le padel grows everywhere

The tournament is a real success with pairs that came from all over and also local pairs that held up. Moreover, we saw a very nice match in 16th between a pair of the club and the duo Hanouna / Semmler.

This competition motivates us to continue in this direction because we see a good level, it is progressing everywhere !

The tournament is not over yet, and yet the public responded. There are more and more curious people and especially insiders who are interested in this sport.

We are in the right direction.

A before and after the Covid

There was a before and an after the Covid. We took advantage of this general stoppage to try to move forward and expand the centre. Today, we have 3 squash courts and 3 padel. And then also a restaurant that works very well with a terrace.

When it was complicated for all companies, we wanted to project ourselves into the future by trying to offer more padel, while innovating and offering a place where people like to go.

I think we have managed to create a real place that is both sporty and friendly.

Bet on the young and the padel female

The club also has a pool of young players who are very interesting to follow and who, I hope, will be found in major competitions in a few years. As for the ladies, we also invest a lot. Moreover, we are going to offer a 1000% feminine P100 next February.

Our schools of padel are running at full speed. If we could push back the walls, we would do it immediately. We have optimized the club to the maximum, now we are thinking about trying to develop ourselves with new tracks. This is our concern. We have projects. We'll talk about that later!
