Padel World Press .- The program of This is Paddle, a space co-produced by Capital Radio and Padel World Press. On this occasion, we had the opportunity to talk with Alberto Vidal, Organizer of the XXXIª Edition of a very special Championship; Bitxori Barcina, Chief Referee; Y Jon García Ariño, National Coach

In total there were 855 couples, 1710 young players and players who gave themselves to the maximum, who had a great time both on and off the track and who contributed to generate that magical atmosphere that is always seen in this type of competitions.

Jon Garcia Ariño wanted to emphasize that: "It was a magnificent Championship and there are no words to describe everything that could be seen at all levels: structure, organization, sports, behavior ... And it's not because Bitxori is with us but there are to highlight how the management and organization of the matches has been carried out, which have been many and in which there are always variables that can not be controlled, such as, for example, that some matches go longer than expected, that they do badly weather. It's been amazing how well everything has worked. "

For its part, Bitxori added: "The general behavior of parents and players has improved an 1000 by 1000. In a tournament with more than 1200 matches, we have only incidents reflected in the minutes. The behavior has been from 10. We gave the players a series of guidelines that they fulfilled and, with my team of 9 referees, we set ourselves a series of organizational objectives that we were fulfilling. The truth is that we all respect each other, parents, relatives, players, organizers, referees and that respect is the basis to be able to work ".

In one of his interventions, Alberto Vidal said: "The most important thing is that we have been able to offer all the players who have come to this event the best possible conditions. I think we have achieved it, that we have formed a great human team among all of them, but I must say that when the awards ceremony was over, I was able to breathe easy. I am not yet aware of what we have achieved because it was a lot of pressure that we had to be up to the task. In a few days we will value everything differently. "

What will Jon García-Ariño have told us about the Absolute World Championship that will be played within a couple of months in Paraguay?

Do not hesitate and listen to the full program. So is This is Paddle, a new meeting point for all paddle lovers.
