Mallorca has successfully concluded the second edition of the Rafa Nadal Academy Padel Tour by The Adecco Group, the amateur circuit that this year, 2025, has gathered almost 2,000 players and has established itself as one of the most attractive and comprehensive offerings in amateur padel.

“The final event held at the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar facilities featured 215 team players from all parts of the peninsula, as well as from Italy and Switzerland, and combined competition, leisure, and a unique atmosphere that has become a hallmark of the Tour in these first two editions.

One of the most emotional moments of the weekend was the tribute received by Carolina Navarro, who recently retired from professional padel after a successful sports career. At the event, held at the Academy’s new indoor courts, the player from Malaga, an international padel icon, received the affection of all participants and of Maribel Nadal, Deputy General Director of the Rafa Nadal Academy, who recognized her exemplary career and her contribution to the development of padel.

The closing ceremony in Manacor concludes a journey that this year has taken the circuit to Santander, Madrid, Barcelona, Estepona, Seville, Valencia, and Gijón. In parallel, the Rafa Nadal Padel Tour by The Adecco Group began its international expansion with a Tour that has visited six other cities in Italy (Rome, Turin, Perugia, Bari, Bergamo, and Florence), with both circuits converging in the grand final.

Maribel Nadal, Deputy General Director of the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar, assessed the evolution of the circuit as follows: “The reception from players in the first edition was incredible, and in this one, expectations have been exceeded. The team format has definitely been a success, and being able to combine sport and leisure has provided us with a unique atmosphere in each of the events of both circuits. We are already working on the third edition to incorporate new features that will consolidate it as one of the leading circuits in amateur padel, and given the demand from many clubs and countries, we are also considering continuing with internationalization.”

The city of Gijón will host a stage of the Rafa Nadal Academy Padel Tour by The Adecco Group for the first time from October 3 to 5. The event, which will take place at VADE4 PADEL INDOOR, combines competition, leisure, fun, and values, and is part of an amateur padel circuit that brought together over 1,000 players last year.

“We are very excited to hold this event in Gijón. It’s a city that lives and breathes sports, and I believe it will be a very special experience,” said Maribel Nadal, Deputy General Director of the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar.
