ROAD TO SAIGON 2025 – TOURNAMENT INFORMATION

Presented by the Vietnam Padel Association (VPA)
GENERAL INFORMATION

Tournament Name: Road to Saigon 2025
Organizer: Vietnam Padel Association (VPA)
Host Venue: Vietpadel Country Club – Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
Dates: 6-7 and 13-14 December, 2025

Categories

  • Men’s Doubles A, B, C

  • Women’s Doubles A, B

  • Mixed Doubles A, B, C

The Road to Saigon 2025 marks the grand finale of the VPA competitive season — an qualification-only tournament featuring the best padel players in Vietnam. Throughout the year, players have been competing and collecting points in the Race to Road to Saigon, the official VPA leaderboard.

The top players from this ranking now earn the right to compete for the ultimate title, national prestige, and the final ranking points of the year.

This event is not only a championship but also a showcase of the highest level of padel in Vietnam — gathering the country’s most skilled and competitive players in a celebration of sport and excellence.

Participation in the Road to Saigon is by qualification only, based on the official VPA Race to Road to Saigon Rankings — the year-long leaderboard tracking player performances and accumulated points across all VPA-sanctioned tournaments.

Qualification Process

The qualification process follows a progressive and transparent approach to ensure the strongest field possible:

  1. Sequential Player Invitations:

    • The process begins with the highest-ranked player on the Race to Road to Saigon leaderboard.

    • Players will be contacted one by one by the organizers to confirm their participation in the Road to Saigon tournament.

  2. Partner Nomination:

    • Upon confirming participation, the invited player must nominate a partner of their choice to form a team.

    • The nominated partner will also be contacted by the organizers to confirm participation.

  3. Team Formation by Ranking Order:

    • Once a team is confirmed (both players agree to participate), that team is officially added to the list for that category.

    • The process continues down the ranking until 8 teams per category are confirmed.

    • The first 8 confirmed teams form the Men’s A, Women’s A, and Mixed A divisions.

    • The next 8 confirmed teams make up the Men’s B, Women’s B, and Mixed B divisions.

    • The following 8 confirmed teams (where applicable) form the Men’s CMixed C divisions.

Eligibility Conditions

To maintain the credibility and prestige of the tournament, the following eligibility requirements apply to all players:

  • ✅ Minimum Participation Requirement:
    Each player must have participated in at least one (1) official VPA-sanctioned tournament in the last 18 months.

  • ✅ Ranking Reference Date:Invitations are based on the final Race to Road to Saigon standings as of November 17, 2025 (after the last VPA Tournament in November)

  • ✅ Confirmation Deadline:
    Invited players must confirm participation within 48 hours of receiving their invitation.
    Failure to confirm within the deadline will automatically pass the invitation to the next ranked player.

  • ✅ Partner Eligibility:
    The nominated partner must also have competed in at least one VPA tournament in the last 18 months and must be a registered VPA player.

Alternates and Replacements
  • If a player or partner withdraws prior to the tournament draw, the next eligible player on the Race leaderboard will be invited to fill the spot.

  • If one member of a confirmed team withdraws, the remaining player may nominate a new partner who meets all eligibility criteria before the official draw is published.

 
Tournament Structure

Each category will consist of two stages:

  1. Group Stage

  2. Knockout Stage

Group Stage
  • Each category (8 teams) will be divided into 2 groups of 4 teams.

  • Teams in each group play in a round-robin format, where every team faces all others in the same group.

    1. Head-to-head result

    2. Set difference

    3. Number of sets won

    4. Game difference
