Montevideo (Uruguay) will host the South American Male Qualifiers for the 2024 FIP World Padel Championships, which will take place in Doha (Qatar) from October 28 to November 2. The Asociación Amigos del Pádel del Uruguay (AAP) and the International Padel Federation are the organizers of the male world qualifiers, where dozens of the best athletes in the world will wear their national team jerseys with the aim of securing a spot for Qatar. Doha will host the FIP World Padel Championships for the second time, reaching its 17th edition, after the extraordinary event of 2021. In Dubai 2022, the last world tournament took place, where Argentina triumphed in the men’s category and Spain in the women’s.

The venue for the male South American “FIP World Padel Championships Qualifiers” will be the TOP Padel Fit Center club in Montevideo.

Luigi Carraro, President of the International Padel Federation: “South America is the cradle and history of padel. Every time a world ritual is repeated, the echoes of the feats of the great champions who have written beautiful pages of our sport fill the memories and stories of those who witnessed them. Therefore, when an event of this level is held in South America, it is always something special. My thanks to the Asociación Amigos del Pádel del Uruguay, the American Committee of the FIP, the country’s institutions, and those of Montevideo for deciding to support the FIP in organizing these South American Male Qualifiers for the FIP World Padel Championships”.

Claudia Fernandez, President of the Asociación Amigos del Pádel del Uruguay: “At the AAP, we are very happy to be able to organize the event in our country and to welcome the delegations from Ecuador and Venezuela. We want to thank Diego Miller as President of the American Committee of the FIP for trusting us, and the directors of the Top Padel Fit Center club for joining us in this project with the aim of making the qualifier fantastic and unforgettable for everyone involved”.

Diego Miller, President of the FIP American Committee: “We are happy to announce this venue in a country with such a rich history as Uruguay, one of the founders of the FIP. I am sure that the National Association, its President Claudia Fernandez, and her entire team will do a great job in a qualifier that will surely be very competitive and fill us with excitement. Beyond the sporting results, our goal is to satisfy everyone in terms of logistics, infrastructure, and the overall organization, as a World Padel Championship qualifier deserves. I want to congratulate and thank AAP for their commitment as hosts, as well as the Federations of Venezuela and Ecuador for their excellent collaboration”.
