Doha, 13 December 2020: Vodafone Qatar and PADEL IN, the first and only indoor padel club in Qatar, have partnered to hold 5 major padel tournaments between now and May 2021, kicking off with the Qatar National Day (QND) 2020 Tournament from 13 to 17 December at Al Sadd Sports Club.
Padel enthusiasts will also get the opportunity to take part in the other tournaments scheduled next year in January, National Sports Day in February, March and during the holy month of Ramadan.
As part of the partnership, Vodafone’s GigaNet network will power the Padel IN venue giving the organisers the seamless connectivity needed to hold large sporting events and to live-stream the matches for audiences to enjoy the excitement of the tournament from anywhere on their smartphones.
In October, Vodafone was named the Official Sponsor of the 2020 Padel Tournament, organised by the Qatar Olympic Committee which saw huge participation- testament to the sport’s rising popularity in the country. A mix between tennis and squash, padel is the fastest growing racket sport in the world due to the fun, easy and social nature of the sport.
This latest partnership with PADEL IN is a continuation of Vodafone Qatar’s support of the country’s sports sector. The Company, especially their network, has already had a significant role in several of the country’s highly successful local and international sporting events including the 24th Arabian Gulf Cup, HH The Emir’s Sword Festival 2020 and 2020 Qatar Masters Golf Tournament.
