Registrations Now Open for Malaysia’s Largest Padel Tournament

Registrations are now open for the Volvo Padel Open – Malaysia’s largest padel tournament – slated to take place between 21 June to 27 July 2025.

Held in partnership with three established Klang Valley padel clubs – Joy Division Padel, Padelground, and PadelKu, this year’s tournament is set to offer up to 320 participants the chance to win cash, merchandise, court hours, and an exclusive seven-day experience in a fully-electric Volvo car in a total prize pool worth more than RM180,000.

To join the Volvo Padel Open, participants only require a one-off fee of RM160 per participant, or RM320 per team. Volvo car owners will enjoy an additional 50% off individual entry fees.

This year, the three categories for the Volvo Padel Open are Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced, acknowledging the improved skill level among padel enthusiasts since last year’s tournament while giving new recreational players an introduction to competitive play.

For the Beginner category, the Volvo Padel Open 2025 offers participants more time to compete by introducing the “americano” format for qualifying rounds. Participants register as individuals but take turns partnering with others in their group, accumulating team points with every match.

Only the 16 top male and female players in this category will be paired up through men’s and women’s divisions in the semifinals, giving participants more chances to experience diverse styles of gameplay with different players.

On the other hand, participants in the Intermediate and Advanced categories will register as teams from the start, choosing between men’s and mixed divisions. Qualifiers will be played as round-robin matches in sets of up to five games, advancing to elimination matches played in sets of up to seven games before the finals are played in a full match format.

To ensure fair matches for all, participants in the Beginner and Intermediate categories this year will have to undergo mandatory player assessments by professional coaches to verify their actual skill levels.

Like last year, Volvo Car Malaysia is offering complimentary coaching clinics for participants in the Beginner and Intermediate categories for players to gain confidence and useful tips prior to the tournament. Held over one-hour sessions in groups of four players, the clinics aim to improve player skills and tactics.

The finals for all categories will be held at Joy Division Padel’s new premises at Jalan Penchala, Petaling Jaya (JOY2) boasting two tournament-level courts. The finals are open to public spectators with complimentary hospitality only for all Volvo Padel Open participants.

This year, the Volvo Padel Open is proud to have official sponsors Tactical Padel for official tournament balls, merchandise, and winner prizes, Glacéau vitaminwater as the official energy drink courtesy of Coca-Cola Malaysia, and Directors’ ThinkTank as the creative production partner.

Don't miss out on this exciting opportunity to participate in Malaysia’s largest padel tournament. Registration is open from now until 3 July 2025, or until slots are full. To participate, register via https://padel.volvocarmalaysia.com.
