From July 10 to 16, the Italy Major Premier Padel returns to the Foro Italico, for the first time in a “combined” format
The countdown has begun forthe Italy Major Premier Padel in Rome, one of the most prestigious tournaments on the international padel circuit, which will be held at the Foro Italico from July 10 to 16. For the first time, the tournament will be played in a “combined” format—with men’s and women’s matches taking place simultaneously—with the goal of attracting even more professionals, spectators, and fans of the sport.
Launched just over a year ago, Premier Padel is the official world padel tour launched by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), the only one governed by the International Padel Federation (FIP) and supported by the Professional Padel Association (PPA). The event has taken the sport to a new level, helping to spread the game of padel around the world and attracting an ever-growing number of top-level athletes. Following the Ooredoo Qatar Major Premier Padel, held in March in Doha, the focus now shifts to Rome, with six days of matches, events, and an exhibition area featuring the best Italian and international padel brands.
Padel Mi Amor will also be present at the Italy Major Premier Padel Roma with its own booth, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the complete collection of Padel Mi Amor products and discover the latest news regarding accessories and new collections.
