Growing and Developing Padel in the Philippines

International Membership

Continental Recognition
Padel Asia
PPA is recognised within Padel Asia, the FIP’s continental confederation for the region, covering continental championship and World Championship qualification pathways.
Mandate
One federation. One recognised pathway.
PPA holds international membership, selects and fields the Philippine Padel Team, and sanctions the competition that carries official ranking points — the structure that gives Filipino padel a route to the world.
The Philippine Padel Association was formed in 2020 to build exactly that, for the players and clubs playing the sport across the Philippines every week — from weekend courts to the Philippine Padel Team.
Everything below sits on that foundation: the Philippine Padel Team with a defined selection route, sanctioned events that carry official ranking points, a growing membership of players and coaches, and club affiliation open to any venue that wants in.
