Sponsorship — Asia Premier Pickleball League

Why sponsor

A season, not a one-off

Season 1 is a Division 1 pilot of eight founding clubs. Figures below are illustrative pilot-season projections, not guaranteed delivery — and they grow with Divisions 2 and 3 in Season 2. We report actuals to partners after every match week.

56Rostered players

32Fixtures across 8 nights

9Match nights incl. finals

6Host venues in play

Who is actually in the room

APPL players are adults who pay for court time, buy paddles at least once a season, travel for tournaments and eat and drink at the venue afterwards. Fixtures run weekly for ten weeks, so a partner gets sustained presence rather than a single event burst.

Projected 500–800 in-venue attendances across the season, including players, subs and spectators.
Every result posted publicly and submitted to DUPR, giving a weekly content beat all season.
Courtside sampling and demo space at host venues, where players and spectators stay after play.
Every game is recorded with video replay, so partner content is generated from real match footage, not stills.
Scores are published within 2 hours and standings within 24 hours — a reliable, branded content beat every Tuesday night.
Season 1 is a Division 1 pilot; Divisions 2 and 3 open in Season 2 for 56 teams in total. Founding-year partners scale with the pyramid.
A neutral, independent competition — no club or venue brand competing for share of voice.
