Why padel

Rotating pairs means you play alongside more people in two hours than you meet in eighteen holes.

You do not need to be good at padel. Nobody in this field is. What you need is two free hours on the Tuesday afternoon and a willingness to be introduced to people CIBA thinks you should know.

Pairs rotate through the tournament, so you are not stuck with one partner for the afternoon. Pairings are set from the business matching data collected at registration.

Two hours, and you will have played alongside half the field.

Thirty two players. Four courts. Pairs rotate, so the person across the net keeps changing.

What the afternoon gives you

More introductions than a round of golf

Who you meet

Half the field

Rotating pairs put you alongside player after player instead of the same three people for four hours. Two hours, many more conversations.

How it is set

Deliberate pairings

Your registration form says what you are looking for and what you can offer. CIBA sets the rotation from it rather than drawing names.

After play

Prize-giving from 18:00

Cocktail snacks and a beverage, with the golfers joining you. Included in the ticket.

What is included

Turn up and play

  • Two hours of tournament play across four courts

This ticket does not carry CPD. CPD units are earned on the two conference days, 25 and 26 November.

The day

Tuesday 24 November
