For several months, the French Tennis Federation has wanted to develop its system related to tennis tournaments. padel. Tournament categories padel could evolve with the appearance of two new categories: P1500 and P2000

Tournaments padel P1500 and P2000 could see the light of day next year. For the moment, these files are still being investigated by the FFT authorities. But it is clear that the FFT wishes to breathe new life into the tournaments of padel.

1.Why propose new categories?

The reasons are very diverse. But the objective of the FFT is to reduce the number of tournaments of padel elites. The P1000 have become tournaments “very and too classic with many disparities in levels between the different competitions of the same category".

The big winners: It is inevitably the top French players who will be able to benefit from more selective specifications and a larger financial endowment.

2. Will they be more restrictive?

Both categories will be very restrictive. There will indeed be a specification for these competitions.

The other element: They are limited each year.

The players will also be able to plan these competitions as we could see a precise calendar on all these events by the beginning of next year.

The circuit FFT Padel Tour could well occupy part of these competitions.

Other tournaments could be offered this category if they meet the specifications of the FFT.
