There will be a world-class sponsor adding prestige and prizes to the Team Challenge of the Asia Pickleball Games 2025. This sponsor is known to pretty much every pickler around the world and is among the premier brands in the sport today: JOOLA.
The Asia Federation of Pickleball (AFP) announced on Monday that JOOLA will be the official prize sponsor for the Team Challenge 19+ Division of the Asia Pickleball Games 2025. Meaning, this year’s champion team won’t just walk away with prize money as they’ll also get to bring home a brand-new JOOLA top-range paddle. This world-class, top-of-the-line paddle, incidentally, is the same high-performance paddle used by the today’s top professionals.
The Asia Pickleball Games 2025 organised by the AFP is set to take place on 13 December 2025. The matches will be held at 2-2-22 Ariake, Koto-ku, Tokyo 135-0063, Japan. The tournament is exclusively for players with an Asian National ID, Permanent Resident ID, or an Asian country’s passport. It will be a team challenge with three categories: Team Challenge 19+, Team Challenge 35+, and Team Challenge 50+.
