The internship of the French team of padel ladies and gentlemen at the Club de Padel Mind Padel in Lyon begins this Wednesday. An internship padel which will allow captains Patrick Fouquet and Alexis Salles to get an idea of ​​the team to be called for the European Championships of padel next November.

By coincidence, we learned this afternoon that these championships would take place in Portugal from November 3 to 9. But a meeting between the FIP and the European Association of Padel could perhaps allow this place to evolve. Remember, Italy seemed well placed to host these 12th European Championships of Padel.

Another element to take into consideration, France and Italy are the only two countries not yet to be part of the European Padel Association (EPA). It is precisely this body which is supposed to take care of the European event. A strange situation, especially since the International Tennis Federation (ITF), has still not commented on its intentions around the padel in 2019. We only know that she wants to invest in padel.
