  • October 31, 2024

DAZN, the global sports streaming platform, will be the global broadcaster of the Hexagon Cup. This platform will live stream all matches of the second edition of the Hexagon Cup -excluding the USA-, which will be available for free by registering on DAZN.com. DAZN users will be able to enjoy both the qualifying rounds and the deciding round of the tournament live and on-demand worldwide.

Viewers will be able to enjoy this innovative format that brings together the best padel players in teams, led by renowned personalities. Notably, the Hexagon Cup will feature two new teams in its second edition: 'Kru Padel by Taktika', backed by Leo Messi and Sergio Agüero, and '10 Padel', led by F1 driver Pierre Gasly and entrepreneur Loïc Féry.

Both will join last year’s teams: 'Team AD/vantage', supported by tennis legend Andy Murray and co-owned by Arran Yentob and Dani Vallverdu of AD Global Sports; the 'ElevenEleven' team, owned by American actress Eva Longoria; and the 'Rafa Nadal Academy, powered by Richard Mille'; alongside 'RL9', led by FC Barcelona player Robert Lewandowski; 'The Team Bella Puerto Rico', led by businessmen María Esteve and Carlos López-Lay; and the 'Hexagon Team' itself.

Alongside them will be the best players in the world, such as Agustín Tapia, Arturo Coello, Ari Sánchez, Paula Josemaría, and an exceptional team that will captivate all spectators.

As a pioneering event in the sector, Hexagon will invest significantly in audiovisual production to further elevate the standard of the tournament following the first edition. Astrid Thams, Commercial Managing Director of Hexagon, expresses pride in this announcement: “DAZN is the most global platform for sports streaming, and this renewal agreement confirms that we continue to grow and work towards making this event an international benchmark. We are delighted to have DAZN broadcasting the tournament globally.”

Tim Godfrey, Strategic Advisor to Hexagon Cup, said: “DAZN was an outstanding partner for our inaugural event, demonstrating the power of their global platform and showcasing the Hexagon Cup’s innovative format to fans worldwide. Their commitment aligns perfectly with our vision to elevate the sport and connect with audiences across the globe. We’re thrilled to extend this partnership and continue growing the game together.”

‍Tom Burrows, EVP Global Head of Rights at DAZN, said: “Following a successful first year of our partnership, DAZN looks forward to bringing this season of the Hexagon Cup to fans globally, delivering a truly immersive and engaging entertainment experience. Padel has witnessed an unparalleled rise in popularity over recent years, and DAZN is committed to bringing the best action from the sport by broadcasting this tournament, while supporting its growth.”
