This October, Torre del Mar will host the second Pink Padel tournament, a fundraiser for the Axarquia cancer charity, Asociación Esperanza. The event will take place at Global Sports in Torre del Mar, with padel matches, live music, food, and fundraising activities from 5pm to 11pm on Saturday, October 17. The tournament will feature 48 players who will pay €10 each, with all proceeds going directly to Asociación Esperanza.
The organization provides social, psychological, and practical support for people affected by cancer in the Axarquia area. The Pink Padel tournament was started by a group of non-Spanish-speaking residents who wanted to connect with local life, learn about their community, and give back. Organizers are inviting local businesses to contribute raffle prizes and financial support for event costs, such as court hire and sports equipment.
Following the tournament, players will enjoy a picnic with food provided by the participants. The first Pink Padel event last year raised €1,194 for FECMA, the Spanish Breast Cancer Associations. Association president Maria Ramos thanked the organizers for combining sports, friendship, and solidarity to assist those battling cancer.
