FFT releases padel calendar for 2027 season
The French Tennis Federation (FFT) has published the calendar of national padel competitions for the 2027 sports season. It was approved by the federal committee on Thursday, 7 May, on the proposal of the federal padel commission. The season runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027 and includes 45 official events on the national programme. Venues were awarded against fixed tender criteria; referees and officials are appointed separately for each event by the FFT refereeing department.
For clubs, players and selected host venues, early publication means certainty for travel, court bookings and staffing. The calendar reflects padel’s growing role within French tennis structures and clearly ranks events by category and level.
Championships and national highlights
The French senior doubles championships and wheelchair padel will be held from 2 to 4 October 2026 at PADEL+ in Agen, Nouvelle-Aquitaine. That opening weekend on the highest national tier traditionally draws strong attention in the French padel community.
Other national dates are set. Interclubs Nationale 1 run from 29 to 31 January 2027 at Palatium Sport & Life, Interclubs Nationale 2 from 5 to 7 March 2027 at A Padel. Senior +45 events take place from 10 to 12 June 2027 at Galaxy Padel Poitiers. The French youth championships close the summer from 23 to 30 August 2027 at CNE Vichy with the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes league.
Interregional conferences in May 2027
Interregional conferences are scheduled for 1 and 2 May 2027 and form a key qualification window before summer tournaments. In the women’s draw, Breizh Padel AS hosts the West zone and WinWin Padel Manosque the East zone. For the men, the West conference is at Impact Stadium and the East conference at PadelShot Lyon.
The geographic split is intended to keep travel fair and strengthen regional competition culture. Spectators get concentrated top-level matches across four established venues in one weekend.
TNJ tour: opening in Nancy, finale in Vichy
The national youth circuit TNJ starts on 12 and 13 December 2026 at Spark Nancy, putting youth development in focus early. Stage two follows on 27 and 28 March 2027 at PadelShot Rouen Barentin, stage three on 29 and 30 May 2027 at Wit Fit Padel.
The TNJ Master closes the series on 3 and 4 July 2027 at CNE Vichy—the same complex that later hosts the youth championships. The circuit gives young talents a continuous competitive line with rising intensity through the season.
Four P3000 dates on the federal calendar
Four P3000 tournaments shape the season at the highest national level below the international elite. The series opens from 13 to 15 November 2026 at Break Padel Club, followed by La Pista from 19 to 21 January 2027 and 4Padel Vaires-Torcy in Île-de-France from 19 to 21 March 2027.
The final P3000 runs from 9 to 11 July 2027 at Casa Padel Kingersheim in Alsace. Dates are spread across the sports year so top players can target several ranking and prize-money opportunities.
P2000 women: seven stops from Poitiers to Strasbourg
The women’s P2000 opens from 25 to 27 September 2026 at Galerie République Poitiers. The schedule continues with 4Padel Orléans Fleury (4–6 December 2026), Esprit Padel La Boisse (26–28 February 2027), Arsenal Padel Tarbes (23–25 April 2027), 4Padel Seclin (14–16 May 2027), Paul & Louis Sport (4–6 June 2027), All In Tennis Padel Country Club de Grasse (30 July–1 August 2027) and Casa Padel Vendenheim Strasbourg (20–22 August 2027).
The series covers most French regions and gives the women’s field a full national tour.
P2000 men: parallel structure with dedicated hosts
The men’s P2000 programme also opens on 25–27 September 2026 at Sporting Club Évreux in Normandy. Next are Viapadel Rivesaltes (4–6 December 2026), 3 Set Padel (26–28 February 2027), No Ad Padel Reims (23–25 April 2027), Terrapadel (14–16 May 2027), Squash Bad Padel 24 (4–6 June 2027), Casa Padel Uno (30 July–1 August 2027) and Univers Padel (20–22 August 2027).
Scheduling mirrors the women’s series and avoids clashes on the busiest weekends.
Wheelchair padel: four P250 dates
Wheelchair padel has four national P250 events: 4–6 September 2026 at Tarbes Padel Club, 26–27 November 2026 at Casa Padel Kingersheim, 11–12 March 2027 at Break Padel Club and 17–18 June 2027 at Big Padel. Para padel thus has a full competition line-up across the season in the same official document as mainstream categories.
Planning for clubs and players
With the FFT calendar published, dates, venues and categories for the main national padel events of 2026/2027 are fixed. Clubs can coordinate logistics, court capacity, sponsorship and officials early. Players get a reliable overview of championships, P3000, both P2000 tours, TNJ stages and wheelchair padel—the basis for training cycles, travel and entry decisions in one of Europe’s most dynamic padel markets.
