The DASSA season is picking up speed. With fixtures now underway across Dubai, the under-11s took their turn on court on Thursday 5 November at the DASSA U11 Padel tournament, hosted at Padel Pro One Central.
Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in UAE schools, and the turnout showed it, with young players from schools across the city lining up under the shadow of the Museum of the Future.
Boys: Arcadia on Top
Arcadia British School claimed the boys' title, with Jumeirah Primary School (JPS) taking second place and JESS Jumeirah third.
Girls: JPS Take Gold
JPS went one better in the girls' event, finishing first ahead of JESS Jumeirah in second and Hartland International School in third. That made JPS and JESS Jumeirah the only schools on the podium in both events.
