Acapulco, February 23, 2025.- In front of dozens of children from different neighborhoods of Acapulco, the traditional Kids Day of the Abierto Mexicano Telcel presented by HSBC was held, being an authentic sports party with the participation of several figures of the tournament.

In the first activity were the Mexican Rodrigo Pacheco and the Americans Alex Michelsen and Ben Shelton, who were received with great enthusiasm by the public that gathered at the main court of the GNP Seguros Arena. Each one of them led a team of children, who played a pelote demonstrating their best skills with the racquet, reaching the final a pair of 10 year olds, Iñaki and Roberto.  

For the second Kids Day activity, Spain’s Roberto Carballés Baena took the court, accompanied by Canada’s Denis Shapovalov and Great Britain’s Cameron Norrie. The game was about hitting the tennis ball to giant rackets distributed on the court, with Norrie’s team finishing as the winner.

To conclude Kids Day, Daniel Altmaier, Lorenzo Musetti, Marcos Girón and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina entered the main stadium to play doubles with the children, having fun in a game called “The King of the Court”.

With another edition of this activity, the Abierto Mexicano Telcel presented by HSBC reaffirms its commitment to children and is concerned about them enjoying a tennis session with their favorite players, in addition to winning prizes, gifts and an experience they will remember throughout their lives. 

In the stands it was all fun as the parents of the children cheered on their children who competed alongside the professional tennis players with excitement and enthusiasm.

With an agenda of activities planned for children and parents, including Kids Day and Family Day, the AMT seeks to integrate the community in sports initiation programs, in this case with a first approach to tennis for boys and girls.
