Carib Padel

OWN THE SPORT

OWN THE REGION

Carib Padel is building the sport of padel in the Caribbean by developing and controlling the full system end to end, including clubs, infrastructure, national associations, competition, and media, all unified under one platform that sets the rules, captures the economics, and drives how the sport scales across the region.

The Caribbean is the last untapped opportunity in the global padel market. Now is the right time to invest before the window closes.

Join us to take a controlling position in the final open region, influence the global structure of the sport, and help push padel to Olympic inclusion as international scale and federation alignment come into place.

QSI already holds a leading position in global padel through ownership of Premier Padel and integration with Hexagon Cup.

The Caribbean remains one of the last regions without a defined structure.

Carib Padel extends QSI’s position into a coordinated regional platform, connecting infrastructure, governance, sports development, competition, and media rights into a single system.

This creates a direct extension of ownership across the sport’s physical, commercial, and governance layers, increasing influence, expanding global reach, and establishing a long term revenue generating asset within an unclaimed market.

Regional control of infrastructure, governance alignment, and content distribution.

Alignment with Qatar National Vision 2030

Carib Padel directly supports the core pillars of QNV 2030 by extending Qatar’s influence beyond event hosting into ownership of a global sport ecosystem.

Economic Diversification

A scalable, multi-market platform combining clubs, governance, media, and competition. Generates recurring revenue across memberships, tournaments, sponsorship, and broadcast while building long-term hard and soft assets across the Caribbean.

Global Influence & Soft Power

A unified platform spanning 20+ Caribbean nations and 22 Olympic committees creates a consolidated regional voice. This is a rare opportunity to influence an entire geography at the governance and participation level.

Sport Industry Leadership

Shifts positioning from host nation to system owner. Carib Padel builds the infrastructure, federations, and pathways that define how the sport operates across a region — not just where it is played.

International Partnerships

Establishes a sport-led gateway into CARICOM and the Americas. Creates structured relationships with governments, federations, tourism boards, and private sector stakeholders across multiple jurisdictions.

Tourism & Experience Economy

Padel integrates naturally with resort destinations and travel behavior. Clubs become year-round activation hubs that drive visitation, length of stay, and premium guest experiences.

Human and Social Development

Builds national team programs across multiple countries, increasing athlete participation and strengthening possible representation at the international and Olympic level. Expands access to the sport at a community level while supporting long term health, wellness, and active lifestyles across all age groups

THE PLATFORM

We build and operate a network of Padel clubs.

We create national associations.

We control regional governance.

Integrated by Design

Carib Padel is a fully integrated system where each component reinforces the others, driving both economic performance and regional control. No other organization operates across clubs, infrastructure, national associations, competition, and media within a single coordinated platform.

It is the only end to end padel system of its kind globally.

Clubs generate revenue and participation

Associations formalize the sport and creates an effective voting block and influence over the sport

Competition drives visibility and participation

Media converts activity into scalable commercial value

Tourism supports club utilization throughout the year

REGIONAL EXPANSION

Rapid Development

Expansion across the Caribbean creates a coordinated regional platform where each new market adds revenue, participation, and strategic control of the sport.

Carib Padel has identified Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, Bahamas, Antigua, Dominican Republic, and Guyana as the first six expansion markets within the next 36 months. These markets represent the initial buildout of a wider Caribbean opportunity that reaches roughly 45 million people across the region.

Combined with more than 30 million annual visitors, this creates meaningful scale for participation, event programming, sponsorship, and broadcast. As Carib Padel expands market by market, it builds a unified regional audience, strengthens commercial value, and leads the coordinated development of the sport across the Caribbean.

Rapidly adding countries to the association structure and developing Carib Padel clubs throughout the region drives momentum and increased participation.

* Selected list

STRUCTURE

Centralized Control with Local Execution

Ownership of the ecosystem is held within the holding company with local operating entities executing within each market. This structure ensures consistency, scalability, and retained influence across all locations.

The platform grows without losing control and each new market further strengthens the overall position of Carib Padel regionally and within the global Padel Community.

Control of infrastructure, federation, and media defines the market.

FEDERATION INFLUENCE AND GLOBAL ALIGNMENT

An Open Region. A Clear Path to Influence

FIP Development Strategy

Carib Padel, supported by Qatar, will accelerate the formation of national associations across the region and align them with International Padel Federation standards. Multiple countries will advance in parallel through coordinated capital, infrastructure, and programming. Carib Padel and the associated Caribbean padel associations become the single largest voting block in the FIP once ratified at +30 countries

Regional Body

A regional organization will be established to represent Caribbean Padel, coordinate competition, and act as the collective voice of the region within global structures led by Carib Padel

Olympics

There are 22 IOC-recognized Olympic committees across the Caribbean. Coordinated, that represents one of the most concentrated multi-country blocs in global sport. Proactive sport development, political access and influence of the CARIB PADEL network will accelerate the Olympic recognition of PADEL by these Olympic Associations.

An unclaimed region combined with coordinated execution creates a fast track to global dominance.

The Opportunity

Geographical Expansion with Structural Control

Carib Padel is building a unified padel ecosystem, developing national associations and sport governance in parallel with club infrastructure designed for both visitors and local markets. The Caribbean enables multiple markets to be developed concurrently within a compact geography creating immediate alignment across tournaments, player development, content, and governance, establishing consistency and speed from the outset.

Momentum is already building. Early structural leadership will define how the sport takes shape and the opportunity to establish control of an entire global region before competing systems emerge and fragment the market is NOW.

Barbados

The Anchor Market

Barbados is the ideal starting point due to its political stability, global credibility, and leadership within CARICOM.

Under Mia Mottley, the country has strengthened its position as a regional gateway for international partnerships and strategic capital. Her government has demonstrated an ability to translate diplomacy into real economic engagement, reinforced by deepening relationships with Middle Eastern partners, including Qatar. This creates a clear pathway for collaboration that extends beyond Barbados into the wider Caribbean.

This approach aligns directly with Qatar National Vision 2030 and its focus on economic diversification, providing access to tourism, sport, and hospitality assets while establishing a scalable platform across an underdeveloped regional market.

Barbados combines high value tourism, an established racquet sports culture, and a clear pathway for federation recognition. It serves as the operational and governance anchor for the platform, establishing the first integrated Padel model and setting the standard for coordinated expansion across the Caribbean.

Regional Development & Funding Framework

Unified Development Model

Carib Padel, alongside QSI, deploys capital across the full stack, associations, governance, and clubs, in a single coordinated rollout.

We fund and form national associations, establish a regional governing body, and build a scaled club network across priority markets.

Club Network Expansion

Capital drives rapid network growth through:

The club network is the engine. It anchors the sport, hosts competition, and delivers recurring commercial revenue.

It also creates a premium, sport led tourism product that plugs directly into the Caribbean visitor economy.

Strategic Outcome

Capital secures control.
Infrastructure drives revenue.
Governance locks in long term advantage.

One system. Built to scale.
