The FIP Promises Heroe’s in Marina di Ravenna runs from 6 to 9 August 2026 at the Heroe’s Marina Sport Center, with the main draws starting this Friday, 7 August. In the Boys Under 18 event, Gabriele Laurino and Stefano Indomenico lead the draw. In the Girls Under 16 event, Vittoria Conti and Costanza Vanni begin their round-robin campaign with two matches listed on Friday’s order of play.
Laurino and Indomenico are the No. 1 seeds in U18
The official draw places Gabriele Laurino and Stefano Indomenico at the top of the Boys Under 18 seeding with 2,047 team points. After a first-round bye, they are due to enter in the round of 16 against Tommy Buzzoni Corrente and Riccardo Vecchi. Their match appears on court 3 in Friday’s published order of play.
The pair arrive in Ravenna with a recent reference point. Laurino and Indomenico won the Boys Under 18 title together at the FIP Promises Sanremo Padel Experience, Roma III in July. A few weeks earlier, they were part of the Italian team that won bronze at the FIP Junior Euro Padel Cup in Porto. The Italian federation had already highlighted the continuity of their development before that European event.
“This new selection confirms their quality and the continuity of their development.”
Claudio Forte and Fabio Piedimonte, padel officials on the FITP Sicily regional committee, made that comment when their selection for Porto was announced in an official FITP publication. The European bronze and the Rome title now give clear context to their status as the top pair in Ravenna.
Conti and Vanni have two U16 matches on Friday
In the Girls Under 16 event, Vittoria Conti and Costanza Vanni are the No. 1 seeds in their group. The format is a three-pair round robin featuring Eleonora Regini and Giuliana Di Martino, along with Sophie Lucernoni and Elisa Protti.
Friday’s order of play lists Conti and Vanni against Regini and Di Martino, then against Lucernoni and Protti. Exact start times depend on the sequence of matches across the courts, with the FIP using several “followed by” slots rather than fixed times for these two matches. The Italian pair can therefore play a large part of their group stage on the opening day.
Seven draws get under way in Marina di Ravenna
The FIP Promises Heroe’s features seven draws, four for boys and three for girls. The FIP schedule has quarterfinals on Saturday, followed by semifinals and finals on Sunday. Finals are scheduled from 5 p.m. local time.
For tournament updates, the official FIP event page carries the draws and order of play. The official weekend preview confirms Laurino and Indomenico at the top of the U18 field and also highlights Conti and Vanni in the U16 competition.
