At Club la Playa in the Netherlands, the French were clearly above the other teams present during these qualifications for the finals of the world championships. padel by team.

France qualifies for Lisbon next November having inflicted 3 / 0 to all countries that crossed the road to France.

What caught the attention, it is ultimately not the large victories of France against other nations (Germany, England, the Netherlands) with not only no match lost, but not a single set lost either (! ), which makes her a serious outsider in the world top 5, but the few words of the International Federation of padel which explained that the French pairs present during these qualifications would certainly be those who will appear in Lisbon next November for the final stages.

However, it was initially planned that the French Tennis Federation would send the new winners of the French championships of padel 2016, the event of which is scheduled for mid-October for the final phases of next November.

Problem: How to send the list of pairs version 2016 in September to the International Federation of padel since the French Tennis Federation will only be able to provide it to them in mid-October?

The FIP therefore explains that it will therefore be necessary to propose the same team as during the qualifications… Which obviously could displease many French pairs who trust the 4 qualifying places for these world championships. padel 2016.

A priori no derogations possible ... But this week the FIP and the FFT should talk to precisely avoid this planning problem.

If there are no possible exemptions or the possibility of bringing forward the final stages of the French championships of padel, then these French championships will necessarily lose their value. Remember that the European Championships take place every two years. The future champions of France 2016 will therefore have no international adventure to put in their mouths.

In short, a new saga where good solutions do not necessarily jump in the eyes and where there will be again unfortunate.
