Due to lack of political agreement, brand new padel courts remain closed in Marseille. No agreement on their pricing has been reached with the central town hall.

Three courts renovated by the mayor of the 11th and 12th arrondissements are still waiting to welcome their athletes. The councilor denounces a “political blockage” of the municipal majority. “This story of padel is symptomatic of the inertia of this municipal majority,” says Sylvain Souvestre.
