FIP and Premier Padel make enhancements to second half of 2024 Season Calendar, including bolstering tournaments in Spain
May 24, 2024The International Padel Federation (FIP) and Premier Padel have updated the calendar for the 2024 season, which will see enhancements for players and fans alike – particularly in the sport’s heartland of Spain.
Following discussions between FIP and Premier Padel, the world’s leading unified professional men’s and women’s tour – Premier Padel – will make its debut in the spectacular city of Valladolid, with an indoor P2 tournament being held there from 16-22 September 2024. The Valladolid Premier Padel P2 tournament will be held at the indoor arena “Polideportivo Pisuerga”, while the iconic Plaza Mayor location in Valladolid is planned to host the event in 2025. To effect this change, the FIP Valladolid Platinum tournament – originally scheduled for Valladolid in June – has been upgraded (to become a Premier Padel P2 tournament).
In addition in Spain – one of the most vibrant territories of padel – FIP has added an additional tournament to the CUPRA FIP Tour schedule:- namely the FIP Gold Valladolid, which is scheduled from 24-30 June 2024 in the “Raqueta Valladolid” club.
CUPRA FIP Tour is also including another tournament in Sardegna, the FIP Platinum Sardegna to be held in Cagliari from 15-21 July, which is the week before the final phase of the FIP European Padel Championships in the same city (Cagliari, 22-28 July).
Other consequential changes to the 2024 Season Calendar are:
- The Genova Premier Padel P2 tournament will now take place from 2-7 July 2024 (not 15-21 July).
- The NewGiza Premier Padel tournament (21-27 October) will become a P2 event.
- The Premier Padel P2 tournament in Germany originally scheduled for 16-22 September 2024 will be re-scheduled for the 2025 season.
