Partnership Supports Continued Growth of Professional Padel Across North America
The Pro Padel League (PPL), North America’s premier professional padel league, has announced Padeltek as its Official Racket, marking a new partnership to supply top-level equipment and support the league’s growth across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
As the Official Racket Partner, Padeltek will bring its Nevo line to the PPL, offering rackets designed for players across all skill levels from beginners to pros. The Nevo series combines control, comfort, and responsiveness, with advanced carbon-face construction and a multi-layer EVA foam core that support confident shot placement, consistent performance, and enhanced connection to the ball. As part of the partnership, Padeltek will design, create and produce a co-branded PPL racket available for sale at every season stop and select distribution channels.
Beyond providing equipment, Padeltek will collaborate with the PPL on product initiatives and programs that benefit both professional athletes and the league’s growing base of everyday players, including PPL II, a new player development league launched by the PPL in March to identify, support, and elevate the next generation of talent.
“We at Padeltek are very excited to help lead the introduction and growth of Padel in North America, said Ron Saslow, CEO of Paddletek. In addition to developing ultra-premium rackets, balls and accessories, we also want to invest in and help drive the sports’ growth. Partnering with the PPL gives us a great opportunity to make an even larger impact on the sport. Together we will bring the existing global excitement of this amazing sport to North America.”
“As the PPL continues to grow, partnerships like this are a big part of what’s next for us,” said Mike Dorfman, CEO of the Pro Padel League. “Our goal is to help drive and grow the sport of padel across North America. Working with a brand like Padeltek, which is so focused on performance and innovation, helps us do exactly that.”
The agreement adds to a series of recent partnerships for the PPL, including deals with watchmaker Frédérique Constant, leading sporting goods brand Franklin Sports, and travel management company Engine, as the league continues to build momentum and expand its presence across North America.
Looking ahead, the PPL and Padeltek will work together on marketing efforts, event activations, and broader initiatives tied to the league’s continued growth, with a shared focus on increasing visibility for the sport and creating more opportunities for players at all levels.
The 2026 PPL season will feature five events across North America, with the first serve of the season set to take place July 9-12 in New York City, with ensuing events in Los Angeles (Aug. 13-16), Playa del Carmen (Sept. 24-27), and Guadalajara (Nov. 19-22). The City’s Cup, the league’s championship event, will be held Dec. 3-6 in Miami, the padel capital of the United States.
