This weekend the U16 and U18 national youth tournament was held at the  Silk Sets Padel Narbonne , boys and girls. Since  On February 24 , the competition was in full swing in Narbonne.

The young people were present in the boys category with  15 pairs  among the U18s,  24 pairs  among the U16s.  A first for a TNJ!  In the girls category, the young players did not respond as much to the call.  The two categories U16 and U18 had to be merged. 

 Alexia Dechaume  also states that “the level continues to improve” in these tournaments. She also emphasizes that “young people train more and more“, not just those who have  a project identified in padel.  She adds to this that  several U14s  made the trip, in the boys category, to face the older ones!

Note, in addition to this, the presence of the two captains of the French boys team,  Yann Auradou  et  Yannick Maurel  ! As well as  Benjamin Tison .

The start of the finals is imminent,  from 13h  in Narbonne! In the U18 category,  Timeo Fonteny  et  Lucas Pillon  are logically in the final and will be opposed to  Guillaume Poirrier  et  Tom Couturier . Quite an unprecedented final since Guillaume Poirier and Tom Couturier achieved a small feat by winning in their semi-final against Joshua Schbeir and Louis Jover (TS2).

Among the U16s,  Jeremy Robert  et  Basil Baud  will face  Quentin Bernard  et  Johan Peloux .

For the girls category,  therefore combining the U16 and U18 , we logically find bronze medalists at the world championships,  Lou Ambert-Agosti  et  Kimy Barla . They will meet  Celia Talano  et  Victoria Isaac. 

Gwenaelle Souyri

It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
