Women’s Americano in CNAB Barcelona

Weekly Women's Americano in CNAB

Detailed description

An "Americano" in padel is a social, tournament-style format where players compete individually, but rotate partners and opponents after each match.
Each participant accumulates points based on their performance in every round, and the player with the most points at the end wins the event.
It's a popular format because it ensures everyone plays with and against different people, making it inclusive and highly social.

How it works:

Individual competition: Despite playing in a pair, players are competing individually for the overall tournament title, not as a fixed team.

Rotating partners: Teams are mixed for every new match, so you get to play with and against different people.
Points-based scoring: Matches are played for a set number of points (e.g., 24 or 32).

Individual point accumulation: If a match ends 14-10, the two winning players each get 14 points, and the two losing players each get 10 points.

Final ranking: After all matches are played, all individual scores are tallied, and the player with the highest total score is the winner.


Key characteristics

Social and inclusive: The format is highly social, as players meet and interact with many different people throughout the event.

Fair and balanced: It provides a balanced experience, as players are frequently on both sides of the net.
