The tournament brought together representatives from major organisations, including Saudi National Bank, Savola Group, Johnson & Johnson, Procter & Gamble, DP World, Jamjoom Pharma, flyadeal, Saudia Cargo, Luberef and National Bank of Kuwait.

This year’s edition was held under the theme “Beyond the Court”, expanding the tournament’s focus beyond competition to include networking, client engagement and wellness. Since its launch in 2024, the initiative has evolved from an event for Bupa Arabia’s corporate clients into a broader sporting and social gathering.

“Bupa Padel reflects our commitment to promoting health and wellbeing through experiences that extend beyond traditional services,” said Eng. Ali Sheneamer, Chief Business Development Officer at Bupa Arabia. Our relationships with clients and partners go beyond the workplace. Through ‘Beyond the Court’, we are bringing people together through sport, meaningful connections and healthy living. We will continue to develop experiences that respond to our clients’ expectations and reinforce our commitment to health and wellbeing.”

Bupa CareConnect served as the official health partner, while several other organisations supported the event through sponsorship and participation. The tournament will next move to Al Khobar from September 10–12, followed by Riyadh from October 1–3, before concluding with the Bupa Padel Super Cup.

The initiative supports efforts to encourage physical activity, healthier lifestyles and greater engagement with health and wellbeing across the business community.
