Padel Attitude, the famous Lille club, celebrated its 12 years of existence on July 3. Thibault Nollet and Pascal Duhamel look back on their great adventure.

 Padel attitude, the first big club of padel French. Precursor?

Certainly ! We opened in 2014, the padel was not known in Lille, we initiated, explained, trained, animated, to create desire and allow this fabulous sport to develop in the North of France.

In 3 years, there has been a way ...

We are very proud of our concept of center. The energy deployed was huge but what a pleasure to watch our fantastic community of players and fun on the field and in our center around the proposed services (clubhouse, bar, entertainment, coaching, etc ...).

And if it was again, you would do it again?

Oh yeah ! The adventure is fabulous, the sport is growing, the followers are always more numerous. And this is only the beginning ... The foundations are laid to continue development.

Today, what are the ambitions? What is the next step ?

Our ambition is clear, we want to continue to develop the Padel in France by opening and running centers. Sport is buoyant and our concept " PADEL ATTITUDE ”has proven itself.

Where is this new club project?

We are working on several projects to set up another major center in the Lille metropolis and in the Far North. We are currently raising funds to finance this development ...
