The inaugural Anglo American Padel Cup is set to take place in London, United Kingdom, on Friday and Saturday, October 10-11, 2025. The event organizers have planned an outstanding weekend of competition and hospitality at Rocket Padel Beckton, a world-class padel club in East London. Although this event is not sanctioned by the FIP or Padel America, this will be the first time the US and UK compete against each other in padel. The Anglo American Padel Cup has been endorsed by the USPA and the LTA will be officiating the event. The Anglo American Padel Cup promises to be the next chapter of the storied US versus UK sporting rivalry that includes Davis Cup tennis and Ryder Cup golf competitions.
The Anglo American Padel Cup will be a multi-generational team competition featuring four divisions of play for both Men and Women: Open, 40+, 50+, and 60+. Those interested in representing the USA and being a part of this historic event should express their interest on this form and submit it no later than June 30. Team selections will be made based on a combination of USPA Rankings, availability to play, commitment to padel and the USPA, and meeting all the eligibility requirements.

-
- 3 official competition matches
