The decision was made at the 36th General Assembly of FIP, held at the headquarters of the Spanish Olympic Committee in Madrid. Together with Belarus, 14 more countries were admitted to the FIP, thus the number of member states of the federation reached 115.

Membership in FIP gives Belarus access to international standards and rules, brings interaction with sports organizations to a new level and allows our athletes to participate in international ranking competitions.

Padel is a dynamic and at the same time tactical sport, combining elements of tennis and squash. FIP is actively working to include the padel in the program of the Olympic Games.

On October 9, a truly absurd and tense situation developed in Russian sports. On the one hand, the international federations are lifting discriminatory restrictions one by one. On the other hand, host countries are finding ways to keep our athletes out of competitions using a banal bureaucracy. A good example is the Russian gymnastics team, which right now risks losing its chance at the Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
