A busy week 15 for Finnish padel
Finnish padel had a particularly busy week 15, with national competitions held in Järvenpää, Espoo, Lahti, Lappeenranta, Oulu and Pori. The results published by Padelution highlight a well-distributed on tour circuit, where the B, C, D and E categories enable many pairs to score ranking points.
Beyond the simple prize list, this week confirms an interesting dynamic: Espoo concentrates the largest number of tables, Lahti distributes one of the highest point totals, while Oulu, Pori and Lappeenranta show that competition is not limited to the major urban centers. To watch all the international results for the same period, Actu Padel also has a page dedicated to padel results for the week of April 6 to 12, 2026.

Espoo and Lahti in this week’s highlights
Two elements stand out. Firstly, Espoo stands out for its sheer volume: eight categories rewarded at the House of Games, with wins in B1, C1, D1 and E. The successes ofAaron Betts / Oskari Harviainen and Ella Forsblom / Maija Saunamäki, both on 180 points, set the tone for a particularly tough competition.
Secondly, Lahti confirmed its weight in the calendar with the success of Jani Heikkinen / Sami Rautavuori in the men’s B2, also credited with 180 points. These results illustrate a national circuit where the intermediate categories play a central role: they offer tempo, ranking benchmarks and real exposure for local pairs.
Espoo’s presence in the news is not insignificant. The city has already hosted an international event with the FIP Silver d’Espoo, a sign that Finland is also seeking to exist beyond its domestic circuit. This week’s 15 competitions are in line with this logic: developing the base, structuring the levels and multiplying match opportunities.
Key takeaway
- Six Finnish cities are concerned by these Week 15 results.
- Espoo is the busiest tournament, with eight tables awarded.
- The best published totals reach 180 points.
- The women’s tables are present in all the major zones this week.
- Padel in Finland confirms solid growth, door to a network of active clubs.
