The Pro Padel League (PPL) is North America’s first professional padel league: a city-based, franchise team competition launched in 2023 and built on the model of US pro sports leagues like the NBA and Major League Soccer. By 2026 it has grown to 10 franchises across the US, Canada and Mexico, attracted celebrity owners from Frances Tiafoe to polo icon Nacho Figueras, and closed a $15 million funding round. Here is how the league works, who plays in it, who has won it, and how to follow the 2026 season.
