FOREWORD BY FIP PRESIDENT

LUIGI CARRARO
In less than a year, our world has undergone remarkable changes. As I swiftly watch
the beautiful movie of 2023, memories bring me to padel’s historic debut at an
event marked by five Olympic rings, the European Games—a milestone that drove us
closer to the Olympic dream. Subsequently, the World Championships and European
Championships (Absolute, Junior and Senior) have spotlighted the essence of
teamwork and national pride, breaking any record of participation.
The inception of a unified professional tour - Premier Padel - governed by FIP,
marked a significant step forward and added to the affirmation of our flagship
event, the Cupra FIP Tour, and the commitment of our National Federations,
showcasing exponential growth in quality, caliber, and opportunities for both young
and professional players.
This ascent owes much to the collective efforts of athletes, referees, coaches,
organisers, and all those who work very hard on and off the field of play.
Then the establishment of a single and unified FIP Ranking, which stands as a
pivotal achievement—a globally recognized benchmark for both men and women,
indispensable for a sports ecosystem that aims at reaching the highest standards.
As I reminisce on the snapshots of this epochal transition into the ‘New Era’ of
padel, one image remains steadfast and vivid: the fervor and dedication of every
National Federation alongside with their Teams, which has contributed to this
transformative journey and growth. A turning point that has also brought important
changes within FIP structure, strengthening all its departments: from sport to
communication and management, culminating in the inception of the ‘FIP Research
& Data Analysis Department,’ which gave birth to the inaugural global report on
padel: the ‘World Padel Report 2024,’ a comprehensive study that was made possible
by the collaborative efforts of National Federations.
Finally, at this point, it might be tempting to go on telling about our achieved
milestones and goals. And it would be the same if ahead of us there would be more
to be dreamed, pursued and reached.
Thus, we look forward to gathering again in the future to reflect on the ever-evolving
landscape of our world. Our world.

PADEL PLAYER POPULATION
From estimates made by individual federations and analysis by the FIP Department of Research and Data Analysis, the
number of amateur padel players is nearly 30 million, more than half of whom play more frequently (1 time per week).
More than 59 percent play the sport in Europe, 23 percent in South America, 7 percent in Central and North America,
7 percent in Asia, Africa, still growing, exceeds 4.3 percent, and Oceania has a few fractions of a percentage point.
The majority of amateur players are men (60%), despite that it is one of the sports most played by women, who
account for 40% of the total.

COURTS RATIO BY CLUB

NUMBER OF PADEL COURTS

The average ratio of the number of courts to the number of facilities where padel can be played is 3.2 in the world.
The highest ratio is in Oceania with 3.6 courts per club, followed by Europe with 3.4, Africa 3.0, Americas 2.9 while
in Asia the ratio is 2.7.

At the beginning of 2024, we marked the milestone of 60,000 padel courts in the world.
Europe, the continent where padel is played the most, is estimated to have more than 42,600 padel courts (70
percent of the total).
Compared to three years ago, the growth has been 240%, but excluding Spain (more than 16,000 courts), whose
position has been consolidated for a long time, the development in other European countries has been 6 times as much.
On the American continent, there are an estimated 14,850 courts (most in Argentina and South America in
general), 3,200 in Asia (mostly in the Middle East), 2,300 in Africa, and less than 100 in Oceania.

CUPRA FIP TOUR
HISTORY AND STATISTICS

The FIP circuit (from 2020 named Cupra FIP Tour) was born in June 2019 and aimed to ensure that Padel would
continue its worldwide growth by allowing players from less developed countries to participate with their earned
points, in World Padel Tour tournaments first and Premier Padel later, and to develop their professional growth by
participating in tournaments of international relevance.
Originally three categories of tournaments changed according to prize money, scores and player ranking, in order
of importance: Star, Rise and Promotion, to which Gold and Platinum were added in later years.
From the beginning of the circuit until April 2024, 355 tournaments were played in as many as 36 different nations
from all continents (222 in Europe, 51 in South America, 33 in Asia, 22 in North Central America, 21 in Africa, and 6
in Oceania) and winners from 28 different nations.

YEAR 2019

6 tournaments held including 5 male categories and 1 female category.

YEAR 2020

24 tournaments held including 20 male category and 4 female category.

MALE

HISTORY AND STATISTICS

Premier Padel Circuit governed by the International Padel Federation (FIP) and promoted by the Professional
Padel Association (PPA), International Padel Players Association (IPPA) and Qatar Sports Investments (QSI)
was born in 2022.
The goal of the Tour was to hold high-level tournaments for the first two years and then become the only major
international circuit starting in 2024, and this was the case after the agreement to take over the World Padel Tour.
In 2022, 8 tournaments were held all in the men’s category, in 2023 after the agreement with the IPPA association
women also joined the circuit and 6 tournaments were held including 4 “combined” ones.
The 2024 season will see 25 tournaments “combined” spanning 18 countries in 5 continents taking place
throughout the year, demonstrating Premier Padel’s ongoing commitment to reach new markets, grow the game
globally and inspire more people to participate.
The 2024 calendar will conclude with the first-ever edition of the Premier Padel Tour Finals which will take place
in Barcelona on 18-22 December 2024 and will see the top-ranked pairs battle it out for the final trophy of the 2024
Premier Padel season.

ROLL OF HONOUR FOR
FIP TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS

HISTORY AND STATISTICS

FIP in 2021 created a new youth circuit addressed to the Under 14, Under 16 and Under 18 categories for both
boys and girls.
In 2021, it was called FIP Promises Europe because the tournaments were held in countries on the European
continent; since 2022 it has become international.
To date, 39 tournaments have been held (85% held on the European continent), 38 of which are “combined” and
one for men:

The International Padel Federation organises three types of international team tournaments (Professional,
Junior, Senior) for women’s and men’s categories, each one held biennially:

Since 1992, when the professional world championships were first held, 16 editions have been organised,
including 6 in Europe, 8 in America and 2 in Asia.

From 2024, more than 30 percent of the tournaments will take place outside Europe.

In the men’s category, Argentina has won 11 times and Spain 4 times (in 2018 the title was not awarded for this
category), while in the women’s category 8 wins for both Spain and Argentina.

FIP RANKING
Starting from 2024, a single official international ranking for professional male and female players was
established, managed and governed by the International Padel Federation, in conjunction with PREMIER PADEL
and CUPRA FIP TOUR, and in agreement with Professional Padel Association (PPA) and the International Padel
Players Association (IPPA).
The procedure regarding the 2024 ranking in the men’s and women’s categories is as follows:
2024 FIP Ranking
The 22 best results achieved by players in the Premier Padel and Cupra Fip Tour tournaments.
2023 Ranking points retention
The total points of the 2023 ranking for each player will be divided over 50 weeks, subtracting the same amount
of points from each player weekly from January 15, 2024, until the end of the season on December 22, 2024.

In 1991, after some meetings between Argentinians and Spaniards and from other international events in those
years, the idea of creating an international federation was born.

NATIONAL
FEDERATIONS
REPORT

On July 12, 1991, representatives of Spanish, Argentine and Uruguayan padel associations met in La Moraleja,
Madrid. The federation was created and Julio Alegría Artiach became the first president of the International
Padel Federation.
As of today there are 71 member federations, of which as many as 30 have federated in the past 3 years.
There are 39 federations from European countries, 15 from Asia, 12 from America, 3 from Africa and 2 from Oceania.

For each federation associated with FIP, we have prepared a form with the following information:
Date of the federation’s act of incorporation, year in which it became a member of FIP and type of current
affiliation.
Participation: data on clubs, courts and players at the national level and federation affiliation.
Performance Players Ranking FIP 2023: Number of players in the FIP rankings.
FIP Organization Tours: Number of all tournaments of FIP circuits organized by Federations (from 2019 year of
birth of Cupra FIP Tour to April 2024).
Number of winning players by category of Premier Padel and Cupra FIP Tour tournaments.
Podium finishes (gold, silver or bronze) at World Professional, Junior and Senior Championships by nation.
The data on participation were provided to us directly by the federations through the survey conducted at the
beginning of the year or through the analysis of the FIP Research and Data Analysis Department, and the rest of
the information through the databases of the FIP Research and Data Analysis Department.
Country sheets are in chronological order of year of membership in the International Padel Federation.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
HOW THE DATA WERE COLLECTED
A total of 35 nations from all continents provided participation data used in the FIP Padel Report 2024.
Participation data were collected directly from national federations through the FIP National Federation Survey 2024.
All these data were collected by FIP and then integrated with performance and organization data held by the FIP
Research and Data Analysis Department.
For federated nations that did not respond to the survey and for countries that are not yet federated to FIP, an analysis
was conducted by FIP’s Data Research and Analysis Department through its internal database with actual data or
failing that estimated data.

DATA SOURCES
Some National Federations, especially those established only a few years ago, do not yet have their own databases.
Consequently, all contributing National Federations were asked to specify which data sources they used to complete
the FIP National Federation Survey.
Data sources may include secondary sources such as commercial data agencies and/or data from governments or
ministries of sport. Where nations were unable to use primary or secondary data sources, they were asked to provide
an estimate or an analysis was conducted within the FIP Research & Data Analysis Department.
In some cases, in order to have an up-to-date estimate of the number of padel clubs and padel courts not provided
by the federations or not in the Department’s databases, authoritative external specialized sources cited here were
used: Mr. Padel Paddle, Padelonomics, Padel Gids, Padel Lands, Dansk Padel Forbund, Padel Park.
