The Cluster presents its new Board of Directors for the next four years

  • July 12, 2024

On July 11, during the IV Extraordinary General Assembly, which was held online and attended by a notable number of members, the new Board of Directors of the International Padel Cluster (CIP) was announced, with a mandate lasting four years.

The Assembly began with an address by Jaume Ferrer, the CIP’s technical secretary/coordinator. After reviewing the minutes of the last assembly, held on March 12 in Málaga, Ferrer announced that only one valid candidacy was submitted to occupy the Board of Directors of the Cluster, and therefore, this candidacy was automatically recognized as the new CIP Board of Directors.

Next, the new president of the Cluster, Mireia Álvarez, took the floor, expressing her gratitude to the outgoing president, Jorge Gómez de la Vega, highlighting his courage in taking on the role during a challenging period for the sector. For his part, Gómez de la Vega thanked all CIP members for their support during his tenure as president. He also mentioned the need to make way for younger individuals, given the significant challenges ahead for padel on an international level, though he offered his support to the new Board and made himself available to them.

Subsequently, Mireia Álvarez presented the new CIP Board of Directors -composed of eight members from the previous board and four new members- which is configured as follows:

  • President - Mireia Álvarez
  • First Vice President & Head of Facilities - Jorge Caña
  • Second Vice President & Head of Equipment - Álex Pardo
  • Third Vice President & Head of Institutional Relations - Pilar Moreo
  • Facilities Member - Fernando Cánovas
  • Facilities Member - Sergio Tello
  • Equipment Member - Patricio Tarradas
  • Digital & Merketing Area Member - Pablo Carro
  • Ambassadors & Padel World Summit Member - Álex Ponseti
  • Communication & Marketing Member - Albert Escofet
  • Clubs Area Member - Miguel Matía
  • Technical Secretary/Coordinator - Jaume Ferrer

After presenting the new Board of Directors, Álvarez outlined the main objectives of their term:

  • Organize the Padel World Summit 2025
  • Continue lobbying efforts
  • Enhance its own professional structure
  • New applications and improve on the CIP website
  • Launch of the official Cluster magazine
  • Strengthen padel standards (ISO, UNE)
  • Conduct market studies of the final consumer
  • Create a padel database
  • Enhance new CIP services: webinars, workshops, conferences, presentations, etc.
  • Develop the Ambassadors project
  • Establish the foundations of the International Padel Clubs Area (IPCA)

It is expected that in September there will be news about the second edition of the Padel World Summit

It should be noted that some of these objectives were already mentioned in the III Extraordinary General Assembly of the Cluster, as the new Board of Directors includes eight members from the previous one, reflecting a continuity in their profile.
