A Natural Evolution of Industry Networking

The project builds on the experience of the first tournament organised in Barcelona ahead of ICE, where industry professionals gathered for a day that combined competitive sport with informal networking.

The outcome was clear. Interaction between operators, providers, and industry partners happened naturally, driven by the relaxed atmosphere that sport creates.

Padel, in particular, has proven to be an ideal format for this type of gathering. It allows participants to maintain a competitive spirit while encouraging conversation and connection between matches.

The Malta Edition

The new edition of the tournament will take place during SBC Summit Malta week, once again bringing together professionals from across the iGaming ecosystem.

The event is supported by industry partners including:

Apidae Digital / Routy App
Beon
Endorphina

Each partner will field its own team within a structured tournament format that includes a group stage followed by knockout rounds leading to the final match.

A New Tradition in the iGaming Calendar

Beyond the sporting results, the goal of the tournament is to create a space where the industry can interact in a more authentic and relaxed environment.

For professionals attending SBC Malta, the initiative represents an additional opportunity to expand professional relationships while participating in a shared industry experience.
