The tenth edition of the PadelSpain World Padel Awards has once again crowned Nueva Alcántara Club (NAC) as the "Best Club in the World". For the second consecutive year, this prestigious award recognises NAC as the ultimate benchmark in the international padel industry.
The awards ceremony took place on January 29th at Madrid Arena, as part of the Alpine Hexagon Cup, where the most prominent figures in the sector were honoured across various categories, including Best Male Player, Best Female Player, Best Club, Best Products, Best Circuit, and Best Coach, among others. On this occasion, NAC reaffirms its global leadership by once again being named the best padel facility in the world, a recognition endorsed by industry experts and voted for by fans and professionals through the Padel Spain platform.
A tribute to dedication and excellence
This award evaluates multiple factors that make NAC a benchmark club: from the quality of its facilities and its innovative management model to its commitment to technology and its pivotal role in the development of padel at both local and international levels. This second consecutive accolade consolidates NAC as a model of success in the industry, reflecting the impact of its vision on both the sporting community and high-end tourism on the Costa del Sol.
San Pedro de Alcántara continues to establish itself as a hub for sports tourism, attracting an increasing number of visitors drawn to NAC's unique offering. The club welcomes over 400,000 visitors annually and has become a key meeting point for professional players, enthusiasts, and prominent figures from various fields.
To this distinction is added the recent designation as Club Aguilas, a recognition that places it among the most select clubs, and the award for best padel event organized in Andalusia 2024 by the Andalusian Padel Federation.
"Winning the "Best Club in the World" award at the World Padel Awards 2024, and doing so for the second consecutive year, is both an incredible achievement and a great responsibility. This recognition adds to our recent Club Águilas distinction and the award for Best Padel Event in Andalucía 2024. In short, this marks another leap in ambition and the fulfilment of yet another dream in this wonderful project that is NAC. One of the standout accomplishments this year has been the club’s international expansion, which has been outstanding with the hosting of FIP Platinum, A1, Star Padel Slam, Fundación Real Madrid, Rafa Nadal Academy Tour, and many more events. Additionally, we welcomed over 3,000 tourists through organized padel tour operations. These incredible numbers would not have been possible without the team that makes up NAC—a family that includes our visitors and daily customers. This is also a shared success for San Pedro de Alcántara, which continues to grow unstoppably every day. A huge thank you to the jury for nominating us once again, to the fans for their votes, and to Padel Spain for organizing these prestigious industry awards year after year. Get ready—on the 25th, we’re going for even more!," commented Miguel Matia, Founder member and CEO.
"At NAC, we chose to innovate and develop our own technology to enhance our customers' experience. Thanks to Taykus, our exclusive software, we are revolutionising the management of sports clubs. Receiving this award motivates us to keep improving and evolving," Sergio Servert, Founder member.
"When we embarked on this journey, we knew it would not be easy, but we embraced the challenge with enthusiasm. Achieving this recognition two years in a row is the result of the talent, dedication, and passion of the team that makes NAC what it is today," highlighted Pedro Cabral, General Manager.
"This award cements NAC's position as a leader not only in padel but also in high-end leisure and holiday experiences. Thanks to the trust of our members, partners, and visitors, we continue to grow and offer an unparalleled experience," emphasized Guillermo Del Grosso, Operations and Institutional Relations Manager.
