The United States Padel Association (USPA) is committed to growing the sport of padel in the US and supporting padel clubs across the country. As the national governing body and hub of padel in the US, the USPA is in a unique position to help all padel clubs attract members, players, and coaches and provide them with additional resources to make the padel experience the best it can possibly be.
The USPA has introduced its first Club Membership Program. This program has tiered entry levels to accommodate the growing 2025 tournament bid process and increase the support we can provide to clubs across the USA.
By becoming a USPA Club Member, you will be eligible to receive a host of benefits, including:
- Increased exposure to padel players in your area and across the country (and world) – special promotions on social media and digital market campaigns to the USPA’s proprietary database of padel players and followers
- Special listing on the USPA website with direct links to the club’s website/app
- Ability to host USPA tournaments, in which the best players in the US compete to earn USPA rankings and points to represent the USA at international competitions and
- Provision of up to 2 FREE Bullpadel Junior racquets for your exclusive use in developing Junior programming and talent.
There are 3 levels of Membership being offered for 2025. All clubs are encouraged to join. The USPA Board of Directors, Management, and Committees are committed to continuing to improve and invest in our Club Membership Program and will continue to work to increase the benefits available to Club Members as our resources and padel in the USA continue to grow.
Registered Club Membership – $25 per year
The basic membership. Your club will be listed on the USPA website’s Member Club Directory, including your phone number, logo, and hyperlink to your club’s website. We have over 2,500 members and the USPA website is a “go-to” website for news and information about padel in the USA.
Official Club Membership – $240
Benefits of being an Official Club Member include Registered Club Membership benefits plus the ability to bid on and host USPA 100, 250, 500, Senior, and Junior sanctioned tournaments; a minimum of four (4) posts per year from the USPA social media accounts highlighting your club (the USPA has over 7,600 followers on Instagram); prominent logo display (with a hyperlink to your club’s website) on the Club Membership tab on the USPA website.
Premier Club Membership – $480
Benefits of being a Premier Club Member include all the Official Club Membership benefits plus the ability to bid on and host the highest and most prestigious USPA tournaments, including 1000s, Majors, Master Finals, and FIP-sanctioned events; a minimum of eight (8) posts per year from the USPA social media accounts highlighting your club. And finally, the first 20 clubs to sign up for the Premier Club Membership will also receive two (2) Bullpadel Junior padel racquets to further develop their Juniors programming and talent.
Clubs currently listed on and having their logo appear on the USPA website will be moved to a directory tab effective September 15, 2024. However, the USPA is offering the option to remain prominently on the website in the Club Tab—with your club logo and link—if you become a Registered, Official, or Premier Club Member for 2025.
Any club intending to bid on a 2025 tournament must join the USPA as an Official or Premier Member Club by September 30, 2024. Once the tournament levels and number of tournaments are announced for the bid process, those clubs that have become USPA Member Clubs at the top two levels will be included in the bid process.
The USPA’s partnership with clubs is paramount to our mission to grow the sport of padel in the USA. We reinvest every dollar of revenue we receive back into the sport to spur its growth and increase nationwide participation.
We thank you for your support and look forward to working with you as a Club Member of the USPA.
