Miami is set to witness a revolutionary moment in women’s sports as the 6LoveSports (6LS) Miami Women’s Padel League prepares for its inaugural season. Scheduled to begin in January 2025, this groundbreaking league promises to bring athleticism, community, and competitive spirit to America’s padel capital.
Padel—a vibrant blend of tennis and squash—is widely recognized as the world’s fastest-growing sport, with an estimated 30 million players in over 100 countries. While padel has already established a strong foothold in Europe, South America, and the Middle East, it’s quickly gaining momentum in the United States. Florida, with its thriving padel scene, is leading the charge, boasting 12 clubs statewide, including five in Miami.
A Visionary Movement for Women in Padel
The 6LS Miami Women’s Padel League is the brainchild of Andi Neugarten-Maio, a renowned entrepreneur and lifelong athlete who aims to spearhead the women’s padel movement in the U.S. Through this initiative, Neugarten-Maio seeks to create a vibrant platform for women of all skill levels to compete, connect, and grow.
“Miami is the perfect place for this,” said Neugarten-Maio. “Our city thrives on diversity, energy, and a passion for sports. The 6LS Miami Women’s Padel League will give women a chance to not only play but also to network, socialize, and build a strong community around this amazing sport.”
Beyond weekly matches, 6LoveSports will host tournaments, events, and beginner clinics designed to introduce new players to the sport. By combining athleticism with community-building, the league aims to empower women and elevate the game of padel across South Florida and beyond.
Inaugural Season Details
The league will utilize state-of-the-art facilities, including Reserve SoLé Miami and Reserve Miami Seaplane Base, where weekly matches and community events will unfold. These venues will serve as hubs for camaraderie, competition, and celebration of women’s padel.
The excitement kicks off tonight at the Reserve Miami Seaplane Base with an exclusive launch event featuring padel matches, a pro exhibition game showcasing Miami’s top women players, and a vibrant wellness market. The event reflects the league’s ethos: fostering a community that thrives both on and off the court.
6LoveSports: For the Love of the Game
More than just a league, 6LS is a movement with a mission to empower, elevate, and connect women through their shared passion for padel. The organization’s approach goes beyond sports, emphasizing networking, personal growth, and a collective strength that inspires women to embrace the game and take their skills to new heights.
A Bright Future for Women’s Padel
With support from local partners, sponsors, and the wider padel community, the 6LS Miami Women’s Padel League is poised to become a cornerstone of women’s sports in the U.S. As the league builds momentum, it’s clear that Miami is not only the perfect home for this initiative but also a beacon for the growth of women’s padel nationwide.
