What is the Pro Padel League?
The PPL is a team league for professional padel. The league says it was founded in 2023 and has 10 teams across the United States, Canada and Mexico, with both men and women on the rosters. Teams meet at a set of tournaments through the season, and the top eight go through to a finals event. The league describes each stop as a team-based format, and at The Finals it crowns men’s, women’s and team champions.
In 2026 the league also launched PPL II, which it says is meant to develop talent based in North America. The top PPL II pairings earn a place in the preliminary round of The Finals (league announcement, September 29, 2026).

The 2026 PPL calendar
The league’s calendar lists five events for 2026. The first three have already been played.

Los Angeles was the league’s debut there, and Mexico and San Diego won the Playa del Carmen titles, according to the league’s news headlines from August 17 and September 27. Earlier league announcements put a Guadalajara event in the November slot. The league’s July 1 broadcast release still listed Guadalajara for November 22 (release), and on October 22 it announced Las Vegas for November 18 to 21. Older articles may still show Guadalajara.
PPL MGM Las Vegas, November 18 to 21
The Las Vegas stop runs from Wednesday, November 18 to Saturday, November 21 at Dolby Live at Park MGM on the Las Vegas Strip. On October 22 the league named MGM Resorts International as title sponsor for the event (announcement). It is the fourth and final regular-season stop, so it is where the last places in The Finals are decided. Ten teams are chasing eight spots.
The league’s Las Vegas event page says Saturday’s final match airs nationally on CNBC. It does not list match times, so check the page closer to the event.
If you want to play while you are in town, Padeli lists one club in Las Vegas: P1 Padel Las Vegas, with 8 outdoor courts at 1876 S Buffalo Dr. The median peak price on our Las Vegas page is $80 an hour for the whole court, checked on October 28, 2026. Book with the club directly.
The Finals in Miami, December 3 to 6
The 2026 season ends at the James L. Knight Center, 400 SE 2nd Ave., in downtown Miami. The league’s Finals page describes eight-team draws for the men’s and women’s championships. Six teams in each division go straight through, and two more come from Thursday’s preliminary round, where the PPL II qualifiers play the seventh and eighth ranked franchises.
Finals schedule
| Day | Round | Start time listed | Matches |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thursday, December 3 | Preliminary round | 4:00 p.m. | 4 |
| Friday, December 4 | Quarterfinals | 10:00 a.m. | 8 |

The winners on Sunday are crowned the 2026 PPL champions. Times are as listed by the league on October 28, 2026.
Miami has the most listed clubs of any US city on Padeli: 11 clubs and 77 courts on our Miami page, with a median peak price of $101 an hour for a court, checked on October 28, 2026. Our padel in the USA guide shows how Miami compares with the rest of the country.
How to buy Pro Padel League tickets
The league’s event pages send buyers to Ticketmaster. For the Miami Finals the league lists three ticket types:
- General Admission: standing area, with food and drinks to buy.
- Signature Ticket: unreserved floor-level lounge seating, with food and drinks to buy.
- Courtside Box Ticket: reserved floor-level lounge seating along the sideline, with food and an open bar included.
Each Miami ticket covers all of that day’s women’s and men’s matches. The Las Vegas page links to the same Ticketmaster listing. Neither page showed prices when we checked on October 28, 2026, so see the current price on Ticketmaster before you plan a trip.
How to watch the Pro Padel League
On July 1, 2026 the league announced a deal with USA Sports to show five championship matches on CNBC, one from each event, three men’s finals and two women’s. The league called it the first time the PPL would be shown exclusively on a national TV network (announcement). The same release says all PPL events and matches can be watched worldwide on the league’s YouTube channel.
Coverage can vary by event. For the Playa del Carmen finals in September, the league’s viewing guide also listed Telemundo and PX Sports for US viewers, DAZN in many other countries, and YouTube worldwide with some territory limits. Look for a new guide on the league’s news page before Las Vegas and Miami.
How the PPL relates to Premier Padel and the FIP
The International Padel Federation (FIP) calls itself the world governing body of padel and says it governs and coordinates the international competition calendar. On its who we are page it names Premier Padel, the Hexagon World Series and the CUPRA FIP Tour as professional tours. It says Premier Padel was founded by Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) with the FIP and the Professional Padel Association (PPA).
The PPL does not appear on that page, and the PPL pages we read do not mention the FIP or Premier Padel. We found no announcement of a formal link between them as of October 28, 2026. In practice the PPL is a team league with its own franchises and calendar, while Premier Padel is the world tour the FIP co-founded.
Premier Padel’s only US date on its 2026 list on padelfip.com was the Miami P1, held from March 22 to 29, 2026. For the next tour season, see our Premier Padel calendar.
