Today is a rather special day since the France team will finally know its hen and its opponents during these world championships of padel in Asuncion, the capital of Paraguay. 

A day which will allow the French team to fine-tune the final adjustments at the Quinta normally if the facilities are ready to welcome the players.

The Team France is now complete since Laura Clergue and Alix Collombon were able to carry out their first training yesterday.

At the men's, Alexis Salles offered training sets by mixing the pairs most often. Of course, these are the substitutes who have everything to gain by showing the captain that they are operational in this world. A priori, Alexis Salles will lead the 3 already formed pairs: Blanqué / Bergeron, Tison / Maigret and Haziza / Scatena. Small alert on the side of Adrien Maigret, since he had some gastric turbulence to manage the day before yesterday. But yesterday, things seemed to be much better.

On the women's side, Patrick Fouquet intervened several times with the players to help them better acclimatize to wet conditions. We do not necessarily see very well at the club padel Aventura, the second club that will host part of the World Cup matches. We hope that the confrontations of the France team will take place at the Quinta. Answer this afternoon.

It is necessary to find the good automatisms, the good reflexes on these grounds. It is a very good thing to have been able to play on these grounds so as not to be caught out in the event of any matches that will take place here.

Explains Patrick Fouquet.

Small black spots therefore in this start of the competition: First, all the matches will not take place at the same club, there are about 20 minutes by car between the two clubs. Finally, the conditions of the second club will not be those of the main club for this World Cup. The different nations present in this world are crossing their fingers not to play in this second club.

Apart from that, the atmosphere is very good and the competition looks very beautiful!
