We will see the evolution of Tennis and Padel. In France, the number of tennis licensees is falling, more or less rapidly. The number of tennis licensees fell below one million for the first time since 1980.

We thank Romain, for Padelonomics, for his post on his Facebook on the difference in licensees in Spain.

Le Padel was initially seen by the FFT as a means of recovering fired to curb this loss of tennis players.

In Spain, the Padel and Tennis each have their own independent federation. It is a slightly different operation from the one we know in France, where Tennis and Padel are united within the same institution: the FFT.

We can notice that in Spain, the number of tennis licensees is a constant fall. It is from over 110 in 000 to less than 2008 in 71.

On the contrary, Padel has continued to grow during the same period, from 23 to 000.

It should also be noted that in Spain the majority of practitioners of Padel do not take a license. Therefore, a study was carried out to find out the number of players. She concluded by concluding that there was about 4 million practitioners ! Will we reach equivalent figures one day in France? It is not impossible!
