The city of Jaén, which hosted a World Padel Tour in May, finds himself in the public square for a debt of € 400. If this debt is not paid off quickly, it could be that the “cathedral city of padel”Will no longer be on the calendar next year. Quick tour of the horizon to understand.

Jaén hosts its big event every year padel on the cathedral square, a magical place, a bit like the Valladolid square.

After changing the city's political edge this year, the new elected officials may not want to repeat the WPT adventure. The previous elected officials had certainly planned the reimbursement but with the change… nobody knows anything anymore.

What could cause Jaén to stop doing WPT tournaments?

  • A classification of the cathedral at Unesco World Heritage
  • A supposed lack of security during the previous event
  • A debt impossible to repay

What could allow Jaén to continue next year?

  • A discussion between the political parties to save the debt
  • Understand that an event like this has attracted 17 000 people in the streets of the city center and has made thousands of others aware of this beautiful place through streaming and direct broadcasts on the Spanish channel Gol Tv.

Let's just hope that politics does not prevail over sport. Courage Jaén.
