Changing clubs in padel is not just a simple sporting decision. Behind it, there’s also a precise administrative frame… and a calendar to respect. From December 15 to January 31, affiliated players who wish to move to another club next season must submit their transfer request. After this deadline, it will be too late.
A few days before the deadline, the federation reminds us of the essentials: the process is done online, via your personal space. Seemingly simple, but you still need to do it on time.
A key date not to miss
The rule is clear: the official transfer window is open between December 15 and January 31. This period allows players who wish to change clubs for the following season to do so within the federal frame.
Waiting until the last days is rarely a good idea. Between a forgotten ID, a pending validation, or a less available club manager, delays can quickly arise. However, a request not submitted on time can block any possibility of change for the upcoming season.
Who must submit a transfer request?
The transfer request primarily concerns players who wish to represent another club the following season, especially when they were already affiliated and involved in their club’s sporting life.
In practice, the procedure is mainly expected for profiles involved in the previous season (especially in interclub). For players who have not played in interclub, the situation may vary depending on the case: the safest way is to inquire with the new club or the federation to avoid any unpleasant surprise during registration.
Where and how to apply?
The transfer request is made via the federal platform, from your personal space:
- Access your space: https://app-padel.tppwb.be/home/login
- Click on My Account
- Go to My Profile
- Open the Transfers tab
The step-by-step procedure
To avoid any errors, here’s a simple and effective process:
- Log in to your personal space.
- Check that your current club appears correctly in the “From club” field.
- Select the desired club in the “To club” field.
- Submit your transfer request.
What happens after submission?
Once the request is sent, it goes into processing. It must then be reviewed by the club you wish to join. Until this validation is completed, the transfer is not finalized.
Another important point: only one transfer request is allowed per season. So, it’s better to be sure of your choice before committing, both sportingly and organizationally.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Waiting until the last day: this is the best way to miss out.
- Thinking the transfer is automatic: it requires club-side validation.
- Forgetting to inform the new club: a message to the right contact person can speed up the process.
