Measurements in the padel may surprise. In tennis, the surprise came in particular from the sub-prefecture of Isère in Vienne. “Tennis is more of a contact sport”. Our colleagues from WE LOVE TENNIS had a hollow nose when picking up this information!

Information which was confirmed by the famous tennis site thanks to an email which it obtained and which was addressed to the mayors.

“Collective and contact sports cannot resume from May 11”.

“For tennis, we are more in a contact sport”

Tennis, a contact sport? The prefecture explains by stating that “people (in tennis) have to touch the ball ”.

An astonishing argument from the prefecture, but which materializes in the non-reopening of tennis clubs for the moment.
