The French padel ranking is calculated and published monthly by the French Tennis Federation (FFT) via the Ten'Up platform. Each player accumulates points based on their results over the rolling last 12 months, in tournaments ranging from P25 (beginners) to P2000 (elite), with the number after the P indicating the points awarded to the winners. This ranking determines a player's true level, access to certain tournaments, and seeding in competition.

Amateur Padel Ranking in France
Introduction to Amateur Padel Ranking in France
The vast majority of French padel players compete at amateur level, far from the spotlight of professional circuits like Premier Padel. Yet this amateur ranking remains essential: it structures the entire competitive pyramid, from beginners discovering their first P25 tournament to top regional players aiming for the higher tiers. Understanding how it works makes it easier to choose your tournaments and track your progress season after season.
How does the French Padel ranking work?
The ranking is based on a cumulative points system over a rolling 12-month period: each new result replaces the oldest one if it is better, which encourages players to remain active all year round so their ranking does not stagnate or drop. The points earned depend both on the tournament category played and the final position achieved in the competition: the stronger the draw and the deeper the run in the tournament, the higher the number of points awarded.
Tournament categories
Amateur padel tournaments are structured into categories, from P25 for players discovering competition to top-tier categories featuring the best regional and national rankings. The number after the P corresponds directly to the number of points that the winners can add to their total. A player generally moves up from category to category based on their results, rather than aiming straight for the most demanding tournaments.
How to check your padel ranking?
The official ranking can be checked free of charge on the FFT's Ten'Up platform, in the dedicated padel section. Simply search for your name, licence number, or filter by regional league to find your exact position, updated every first Tuesday of the month. The men's and women's rankings are published separately.
Why is the Padel ranking in France important?
Competition structuring
Le classement allows for balanced tournoi draws, preventing an experienced player from facing a beginner in the very first round. This structuring benefits all participants, whatever their level.
Motivation and engagement
Seeing your progress translate into climbing places is a powerful source of motivation to keep training and signing up for new tournaments throughout the season.
Talent development
By identifying the fastest-improving players, clubs and leagues can guide certain profiles towards more intensive coaching, or even towards youth or competitive pathways.
Professionalisation of the sport
A reliable and regularly updated ranking is also what allows amateur padel to serve as a credible stepping stone to professional circuits, providing a benchmark recognised by the entire community.
Promotion of padel in France
The visibility given to rankings, including those of celebrities who have taken up padel, helps popularise the sport among an ever-wider audience.
How to improve your Padel ranking in France?
Playing tournaments regularly
As the ranking is rolling over 12 months, regularity of participation remains the number one lever for progress: a player who enters tournaments in their category back-to-back builds a solid points history faster than a player who only plays occasionally.
Training and coaching
Improving technically automatically speeds up progression in the classement. Working with a padel coach helps you correct the technical flaws that cost points in tournoi faster, from the service to the volée.

Padel clubs
The network of clubs across the country, growing steadily in recent years, makes it easier to access the sanctioned tournaments needed to build and improve your ranking, including outside major metropolitan areas.
Frequently asked questions
How often is the padel ranking updated?
The French padel ranking is published every first Tuesday of the month by the FFT on Ten'Up. It takes into account the best 12 results obtained over the rolling last 12 months, rather than the player's entire career.
How to get your first padel ranking?
A licensed player obtains their first ranking after playing and completing a first sanctioned tournament, generally in the P25 category, the most accessible one. Before that, they generally appear as "UR" (unranked) on official platforms.
Is the padel ranking the same for men and women?
No, the men's and women's rankings are established and published separately by the FFT, with their own points scales and tournament categories.
Can a foreign player get a French ranking?
Yes, via the assimilation system: top international players (FIP ranking) competing in France receive an equivalent French ranking, under certain conditions set by the federation.
Conclusion
The French padel ranking is much more than just a table of numbers: it is the tool that structures the entire amateur competitive scene, from your first P25 to the most fiercely contested categories. To progress faster up the rankings, focus on tournament consistency, good coaching support, and equipment tailored to your level.
