In this episode, Jen and Nick discuss what promises to be the biggest private padel event ever held in the UK.
Organised by friends Sandy Chadha, Ed Rowlinson and Javi Garrido, the SCI-MX Padel Series comes to Manchester on 10th and 11th August 2026. The event will bring together an incredible lineup featuring World No. 1 Agustín Tapia, Tolito Aguirre, Federico Chingotto, Juan Lebrón, Leandro Augsburger, former World No. 1s, and around 20 of the world’s top players. It’s shaping up to be one of the most exciting and prestigious padel events ever staged in the UK.
We’re also delighted to announce that Padel Stories will be there as the official podcast partner, bringing you all the action and behind-the-scenes stories from this landmark event.
Jen also shares details of her upcoming Padel & Pilates event on 23rd September, hosted in collaboration with Jo Hoddes, the Women’s Health Club, and Ground by Studio Thirty Four Pilates.
Enjoy!
