Stade français is embarking on the adventure of padel with the construction of its land padel and the organization at the same time of its first tournament of padel internal.

This is the first land of padel at the gates of Paris, not to say in Paris.

Events of padel planned

The Stade Français announced through the manager of the Stade Français, Louis Buisson, the setting up of events to develop the padel. But above all, the Stade Français could host next year a 2e ground. The area is already found since it will be right next to the first one.

The Stade de Français already since 20 years.

Stade Français is not that new to the world of padel. The club is actually one of the pioneers of padel French. Indeed, nearly 20 years ago, Patrick Tauma, one of the club's former members, now an expatriate in Miami, had already tried to launch the padel at the Stade Français. The land of padel had not met the success hoped for and the club had therefore decided not to continue in the development of the sport.

But that was before.

Sébastien Ruiz, Dunlop manager padel in France and longtime friend of Patrick Tauma knows this episode very well. He recalls that he “it was a land of padel ephemeral to try to promote this sport. Unfortunately at the time, this ephemeral land did not make small".

Le padel is now part of the life of the club and the Stade Français fully intends to launch the dynamic around this spot as quickly as possible.
