Hi all,

We had an amazing weekend in Bushy Park after the Official Opening of the facility by the Lord Mayor of Dublin. On Friday afternoon we had over 40 kids playing the junior padel competition and on Sunday we had nearly 60 players taking part in the Beginners and Advanced Padel Tournament. The beginners tournament was won by Geoff and Paloma, who won a padel racquet each, and runners-up were Niall and Barbara, who got vouchers for the padel shop. In the Advanced Tournament the winners were Alvaro and Henry. In second place were Luis and David. Luis won the trophy to the best player of the tournament.

The Official Opening of the Bushy Park Tennis & Padel Club took place last Thursday 9th November. The Club was fully completed about a month ago and it has 4 padel courts and 9 tennis courts. This is the first public padel facility in the country and we hope it will be the first of many.

The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Mícheál MacDonncha, performed the official opening by unveiling a plaque on the left of the pavilion and then went on to cut the ribbon at the front of the clubhouse. The act was preceded by speeches from Superintendent of Dublin City Parks, Mr Leslie Moore, the head of Tennis Ireland, Mr Richard Fahey, the President of the Padel Federation of Ireland, Mr Joe Cabello (see text of his speech below) and the Lord Mayor, who was very proud to be launching the new padel and tennis club and who mentioned he would like to see more public padel courts in other city parks around Dublin.

The Junior Padel Tournament which took place yesterday at the Club was truly a top class competition. We had nearly 40 players again competing in 3 different categories (see winners and runners-up)

5th Class, 6th Class and 1st Years - Sam and Cian / Raphael and Nicholas
2nd and 3rd Years - Alex and Regan  / Jesús and Lee
4th Years, 5th Years, 6th Years - Bosco and Tony /  Jay and Martha

There were a lot of new players taking part and they didn´t seem to mind the adverse weather too much. The competition was played in great spirit throughout.

Well done to everyone! 

Next competition will take place in December.

The Bushy Park Tennis Academy is offering an Open Day for tennis and fun on Saturday 18th November between 10 am and 1:30 pm. You can´t miss it !
