A Padel Tournament by Enzo Ventures and Cusp Capital
Grab a racquet provided by Royal Padel, bring your competitive spirit (or just your willingness to run around), and let's settle the age-old question: can you actually play padel, or have you just been telling people you can?
We're hosting an Americana-style padel tournament at only 10 minutes away from the Mobile venue, where you'll rotate every opponents each round, which means; if you win, you go up, and if not, you go down.
With 24 players across 6 courts, you'll get plenty of action, meet people you'd never run into at another generic networking session, and maybe discover that your backhand isn't as tragic as you thought.
The format is ridiculously social and beginner-friendly, so whether you're a secret padel wizard or someone who thinks "smash" is just something you do to avocados, you'll fit right in. Racquets are provided for free on-site thanks to Royal Padel, so you literally just need to show up, play and have fun.
After we've exhausted ourselves on the courts, we'll migrate to the venue bar, inside of the same venue at around 17:30 for drinks and the post-game analysis nobody asked for but everyone will provide anyway.
It's the perfect excuse to decompress, swap stories about that one impossible shot, and connect with people from across the ecosystem.
Fair warning: someone will definitely keep score way too seriously, someone else will absolutely not keep score at all, and there's a non-zero chance you'll leave with plans to start a regular game back home.
See you on the court.
