The president of the Catalan federation of padel, Pere Hernandez, was removed from his post as vice-president of the Spanish federation by President Alfredo Garbisu.
President Garbisu explains dismissal by " the explicit support of Pere Hernandez for the referendum on the independence of Catalonia ". For its part, Hernandez defends himself and threatens to sue the Spanish federation, which has not warned him of the sanctions.
The referendum for Catalan independence has not finished upsetting the lives of Spaniards and the padel is no exception to the rule.

Dear Presidents,
Far from us wanting to take part in your different autan more than we have a lesson to teach when we see the situation of the Padel French. But at the level of the European Association of Clubs of Padel, we are at your disposal to listen to everyone and as far as possible to avoid a dispute brought to justice. The rest of Europe always looks to Spain and its beautiful regions when it comes to Padel. We are sending you an invitation to attend the finals of the European Club Cup. Padel November 9-10-11 in Paris
Long live padel
Claude Baigts
President of AECP
