Welcome to the IC of Bolivia

La comunidad internacional del tenis celebra la incorporación oficial del International Club (IC) de Bolivia, cuya creación fue aprobada durante la Asamblea General Anual (AGM) del IC celebrada en julio 2025. La noticia marca un hito para el tenis boliviano y posiciona al país dentro de una red global que promueve los valores del deporte y la amistad entre naciones.

Bolivia posee una destacada trayectoria en el tenis que comenzó a principios del siglo XX con la llegada de inmigrantes británicos y estadounidenses que trabajaban en la construcción de ferrocarriles y en la minería. Estas comunidades introdujeron el deporte en los campamentos mineros de Uyuni y Oruro. Posteriormente, el 24 de marzo de 1937, se fundó la Federación Boliviana de Tenis (FBT) en la localidad de Catavi, Potosí, con el objetivo de organizar y promover el tenis en el país. Actualmente, la FBT está afiliada a la Federación Internacional de Tenis (ITF) y a la Confederación Sudamericana de Tenis.

Everybody was happy that the Royal Tennis Club of Liège was preserved out of the major floods that happened in the city a week before.

From Thursday 28th to Saturday 31st of July, the Robert-Abdesselam Trophy gathered the founding competition ICs (Belgium, Spain and France) and the IC of Luxemburg as IC guest. The Presidents of the ICs of Belgium and Luxemburg, Michel de Marneffe and Pierre Kurt, both played for their respective team. IC of Spain President, Berta Tintore, was also at the event.

For a year and a half, it was the very first IC meeting for all of these four European ICs and everybody was thrilled to meet up again. All matches were played in the nicest IC spirit and the IC of France finally defeated the hosting IC to hold the Robert-Abdesselam Trophy for the third time in a row. The IC of Luxemburg finished 3rd and Spain 4th.

As usual, the IC of Belgium provided a friendly welcome and a warm hospitality to all the participants. A big thank you goes to them.
