Globecast, the leading provider of broadcast, media and entertainment managed services, continues to play a pivotal role in the global distribution of Premier Padel, the leading official professional padel tour worldwide tour, as the sport grows from strength to strength in its rapid global expansion.
Since 2022, Globecast has worked alongside Premier Padel to support the successful delivery of over 58 international events, evolving from initial satellite-based distribution to a fully IP and cloud-powered model. This transition has been key to helping the tour meet the demands of its fast-growing, globally distributed fan base and its expanded annual calendar of more than 24 major tournaments across 16 countries, culminating in the exciting climax of the 2025 season in December, with the prestigious Qatar Airways Premier Padel Tour Finals in Barcelona.
The current delivery model, built around Net Insight’s Nimbra Edge media cloud platform, enables secure, low-latency distribution to over 20 broadcasters and media rights holders worldwide. With ten-hour daily live windows across week-long tournaments, Globecast’s infrastructure ensures reliable, high-quality delivery while allowing for greater flexibility, scalability, and operational efficiency.
