Paddle, Paella & Fiesta: Crafting the Mediterranean Open
Update: 2023-10-18
Description
It was a pleasure speaking with Luis de Cristobal, Director of the Mediterranean Open about the first open event being held at the illustrious Rafal Nadal Academy in Mallorca.
We spoke about:
- How Luis got into running pickleball events
- The logistics of creating the Mediterranean Open
- More than pickleball, paella and fiesta!
- The courts that will be used at the event
- The structure of the tournament
- Initiatives to grow the sport among mentally and physically disabled people (and the special event they have planned for the open)
- The growth of pickleball in Spain and getting the sport recognised by governing bodies
- and more
This was a fun episode. I hope you enjoy the discussion.
