KUWAIT: BNK Group is the official sponsor of padel's world number one Juan Lebron after BNK Group Chairman Bader Nasser Al-Kharafi signed a sponsorship contract with Lebron. Volvo Studio Kuwait and BNK Group hosted Lebron as a guest in the presence of Kuwaiti padel stars and young players.

Ever since he started playing padel at age eight, Juan Lebron has never stopped working on his game. And now at 27, he is on top of the world. Lebron and his partner Alejandro Galan are almost unstoppable in the World Padel Tour.

But despite being a leading padel competitor - the first Spanish-born player to top the WPT men's rankings - Lebron's love of another sport runs deep, too. If he had not discovered padel, Lebron says he would have tried to be a professional football player, 'probably playing center-forward'. He is a lifelong supporter of top Spanish football team Betis.
