ABOUT US
Who's behind Work and Padel?
Where did the concept come from? Dorian Bargigli, a self-taught tennis instructor from Marseilles, was convinced of the potential for development of Padel. On the strength of his atypical background and visceral passion for the sport, he decided to leave the comfort of his position as manager of one of the most sought-after private clubs in the PACA region, the Presqu'île de Cassis, to create Work and Padel at the end of 2017 : The adventure was born!
"Work and Padel is an incredible challenge, full of opportunities, encounters and challenges that I've been trying to meet with the same enthusiasm since the beginning! With my crack team, we're ready to support you at every stage of your Padel project. Our common goal: to succeed!
Our motto: work very seriously without ever taking ourselves too seriously
Our values
Adaptability
Our core value is our remarkable ability to adapt. The strength of Work and Padel is our resilience and our ability to overcome challenges with determination, without ever losing our enthusiasm.
Passion
We're passionate about Padel and determined to develop the sport in France and internationally. Our commitment is driven by our love of the game and our desire to share this passion with others.
Opening
We firmly believe that Padel is a sport open to everyone. That's why we strive to make it accessible to everyone. We are committed to breaking down the barriers that might limit access to Padel!
Friendly
Fun and relaxation are an integral part of Padel. That's why we make sure that our customers and our team feel at ease, by encouraging warm exchanges, humour and goodwill in our interactions.
Our history
Creation of Work and Padel and launch of the first business model based on the management/animation of Padel areas in companies and business parks.
Following the opening of a first pilot site at the Hopps Group headquarters, a second space has been created at the Château de la Pioline in Aix-en-Provence.
We opened two new B2B Padel spaces, including the Voyage Privé head office, and set up our first temporary court at the Docks Village shopping centre in Marseille.
COVID-19: temporary cessation of our activities. Creation of the Work and Event branch to diversify our activities at the end of the year and in 2021.
(R)evolution at Work and Padel with the overhaul of our corporate identity, a 180° turnaround in our vision and the creation of the V2 concept: supporting Padel project owners with an "all-in-one" solution!
Takeover of a building and civil engineering subsidiary, renamed WP Construction, to offer a turnkey service, and roll-out of our concept in France and Europe.
