MAG Becomes Proud Sponsor of the UAE National Padel Teams
MAG, one of the UAE’s leading real estate developers, has announced a partnership with the UAE Padel Association (UAE PA) to become the official sponsor of the UAE Men’s and Women’s National Padel Teams.
The one-year agreement, with the possibility of extension, marks a significant step in strengthening national sporting initiatives and promoting the rapid growth of padel in the UAE and beyond. As part of the deal, the UAE national team players will wear jerseys featuring MAG’s logo in all local and international competitions.
The partnership aligns with the vision of H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, and Minister of Defence, as well as the leadership of Sheikh Saeed bin Maktoum bin Juma Al Maktoum, President of the UAE Padel Association, in advancing padel as one of the fastest-growing sports in the UAE.
Padel’s popularity has surged across the UAE, with the national team securing an impressive No. 5 ranking at the FIP World Padel Championships, Qatar 2024, surpassing established teams from Brazil, France, and Chile.
