What is the Pro Padel League?
The Pro Padel League is North America's professional padel league — founded in 2023, now ten city franchises across the United States, Canada and Mexico, the Miami Padel Club among its flagships. The 2026 season runs five events, closing with the City's Cup Finals in Miami for the first time.[1] [2]
How does it work?
Franchises draft and sign professional pairs — largely Spanish and Argentine touring pros alongside the continent's best — for team ties staged across the season's host cities, men's and women's competition in parallel, building toward the Finals.[1] [3]
Why does it matter?
The PPL is professional padel's North American home — the league bringing world-ranked players to U.S. courts, with Miami as its capital — and a PPL contract is the sport's domestic professional credential as padel establishes itself stateside.[1] [2]
