A Historic Partnership Unveiled at the New York Grand Master of A1 Padel

In a groundbreaking move last March, Yankee Global Enterprises made waves by announcing their stake in A1 Padel, propelling the iconic baseball franchise into the exciting world of paddle tennis. The enthusiasm behind this move was palpable as owner Randy Levine took the stage during the New York Grand Master, the city’s first-ever professional paddle tennis tournament. Addressing the media, Levine shared his optimism about the sport’s future: “We, the Yankees, believe in this sport, we see its potential, and we think it will be very popular in the coming years.” He emphasized the importance of gradual growth, ensuring that fans not only play but also passionately follow paddle tennis on television.

When asked about their choice of A1 Padel, Levine’s praise was directed at the CEO, Fabrice Pastor: “I chose A1 Padel over other circuits because of Fabrice. He is an extraordinary person, a true enthusiast.” Pastor, visibly thrilled about the partnership, shared his excitement: “Being with Randy Levine and the Yankees on a project is a dream that was hard to imagine some time ago. It’s a very important union. We are working hard for the coming years, and I can proudly say that I am a Yankee,” he exclaimed, proudly donning a cap featuring logos of both entities. Get ready, folks – the future of padel just got a Yankee twist! 🎾🌟
