📈 Levels: This time, we have two categories: Beginner (8/9) and Intermediate (6/7). If you are unsure about your ranking, we will determine the appropriate level for you together. This tournament does not count towards the KNLTB ranking, so you do not need a ranking or KNLTB membership. Detailed explanations of the levels are provided below.
Each match lasts 30 minutes. After the group phase of 1.5 hours (3 x 30 min), there will be a semi-final lasting 30 minutes, followed by a 30-minute final for each category. We will also let the losers of the semi-finals play against each other.
The winners of both categories will receive great prizes from @indianmahadradjapadel and @repadel.nl

This will be another day full of sportsmanship, fun, and of course, exciting padel matches. 💪
Level Explanations
Bandeja Padel – Level: Beginners
This level is similar to KNLTB ranking 8/9 and Playtomic ranking: 1 – 2 +/-
You have been playing for a few months, about 1 to 2 times a week, or you have been playing irregularly for 1 to 2 years or have some experience with a racket sport. You are able to hit a forehand, backhand, volleys, and a serve over the net.
After your serve, you stay in the backcourt. The points scored are often from the backcourt. During serving, you and your opponent switch sides, just like in tennis.
Bandeja Padel – Level: Intermediate
This level is similar to KNLTB ranking 6/7 and Playtomic ranking: 2.5 – 4 +/-
You have quite a bit of playing experience and play at least once a week. You are practicing strokes such as the bandeja, vibora, bajada, and chiquita and/or are starting to gain some control over them. You have control over the basic strokes, such as the forehand, backhand, volleys, and serve.
You are starting to understand the game tactically better. After your serve, you immediately move to the net and try to maintain the net position. During serving, the net player does not switch sides. If you are not serving, you try to conquer the net position by playing a lob or chiquita. You also observe where the opponent is standing to determine where to hit the ball.
