General Information

 The Brazilian Pickleball Association (Associacao Brasileiro de Pickleball) is proud to sponsor the first Latin American Pickleball Open, with an especially warm welcome to players from the countries of Latin America.  But you need not be a citizen or resident of Latin America to participate.  All are welcome. 

The tournament will be held at the Valadares Pickleball Club in the Universitario neighborhood of the city of Governador Valadares, in Brazil's state of Minas Gerais. 

 

Transportation to Governador Valadares

Governador Valadares has a regional airport (GVR) serviced by Azul Airlines from the city of Belo Horizonte, the state capital.  The airport in Belo Horizonte (Confins - CNF) is an international airport, but many international travelers find that arriving in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Recife, Manaus, or one of the other major international airports and then transferring to CNF offers a more convenient connection.

From Belo Horizonte to Governador Valadares you have various options: by air from CNF, as previously mentioned; or by train, with tickets available at the Praca da Estacao ("Station Plaza") in downtown Belo Horizonte (travel time 7 hours, price approx US$15); by intercity bus from downtown Belo Horizonte at the Estacao Rodoviaria ("Bus Station" in Portuguese)  (travel time 6 hours, price approx US$28); and, of course, by car (320 km, travel time approx 5 hours via Highway BR 381). 

The city of Vitoria also has train and bus connections to Governador Valadares with similar prices and travel times.

 

Accommodation and Travel Within Governador Valadares

The city offers several hotels  accustomed to hosting international visitors.  Some of the popular ones include the San Diego Suites, Benvenuto Palace Hotel, Ibituruna Center Hotel, Hotel Pedra Negra, Pousada Jeito de Minas.  Check also your favorite travel/booking site online.

 

The city center is approximately 5 km from the site of the tournament and there are safe city buses and ride services through Uber, 99, and In-Driver, in addition to local taxis.  Prices range from approximately US$2.50 to US$4.00 one-way. 

 

Extra Activities

At the close of the Latin American Open, the Associacao Brasileira de Pickleball invites all participants to a final celebration with Brazilian food, music and dancing.  The cost of this event is included in your registration fee.

 

We also recognize that many players  may want to explore the variety of restaurants that the city offers on the other evenings.  Some may prefer to  explore independently, while others may wish to join up with an organized group.  We estimate that the cost of the group outings organized by the Associacao will cost approximately US$20 per person each night.  More information and a sign-up sheet will be forthcoming.  Payment for the group restaurant meals will be collected on site at check-in.
