Since joining the UIM E1 World Championship in 2024, we knew our commitment through the Blue Impact Program had to reflect who we are: Mallorca, the Mediterranean, the sea, and a way of competing that goes beyond results.
Because at E1 Team Rafa, we compete to win — but also to leave something positive behind.
That vision brought us closer to Fundación Ecomar, founded by two-time Olympic champion, Theresa Zabell. An organization with more than 27 years of experience and committed to environmental education, sustainable nautical sports, coastal clean-ups, and marine conservation.
At E1 Team Rafa, we have been developing Protect Posidonia as a project deeply connected to Rafa Nadal’s relationship with his homeland and the sea, with a clear mission: helping protect one of the Mediterranean’s most valuable and fragile ecosystems.
Over the last years, our collaboration with Fundación Ecomar has helped strengthen that journey — combining expertise, education, and action to amplify the impact of Protect Posidonia.
Posidonia oceanica plays a critical role in marine health: it generates oxygen, protects coastlines from erosion, and provides refuge for many species.
Over the last two years, we’ve also worked alongside experts and collaborators to raise awareness, educate communities, and use our platform to create meaningful impact.
