This tournament is a great incentive for us padel players to keep practicing through the year and try to improve our game.

“I have participated in many tournaments in the past, but the Nad Al Sheba Sports Tournament has its own special character because you get to meet so many different players from different countries, and this helps you in gaining experience.”

“Reaching the second round of this tournament shows that I am on the right path and it will be a motivation for me to make even greater efforts in the future to keep improving my game and be the best player that I can be, and reach as far as I can in this tournament.”
