Bringing Competitive Pickleball Action to Three Premier SM Malls, the Tournament Showcases the Sport’s Growing Popularity in the Philippines.
Pasay City – March 9, 2025 – Pickleball fever is sweeping the Philippines, and SM Supermalls and Toby’s Sports are bringing the sport to center stage with the highly anticipated first SM Pickleball SuperSeries. This thrilling team-based pickleball tournament will take place at three of the country’s biggest and busiest malls—SM Megamall (April 1-6), SM Mall of Asia (May 19-25), and SM North Edsa (June 18-22)—offering an exciting showcase of competition and community engagement.
This unique tournament welcomes players in three skill-based divisions: Novice (2.99 and below), Intermediate (3.00-3.99), and Advanced (4.0-4.75). Each team will consist of four players—two men and two women—battling for a share of over ₱400,000 worth in total prizes, making it one of the most lucrative amateur pickleball events in the country. The tournament will follow a round-robin format, with teams of four competing in Men’s doubles, Women’s doubles and Mixed doubles matches.
What sets the SM SuperSeries apart is its unparalleled visibility. With matches happening in three of the most visited shopping malls in the Philippines, thousands of spectators are expected to witness the fast-paced action up close. Beyond the tournament, attendees can enjoy exhibition matches, paddle demos, vendor booths, and instructional clinics on the final day, offering an immersive experience for both players and new fans of the sport.
“With the rise of pickleball in the Philippines, we are excited to bring the sport to a wider audience through this unique partnership with SM Supermalls. The SM Pickleball SuperSeries is more than just a competition—it’s an opportunity to showcase the energy and inclusivity of pickleball while inspiring more Filipinos to get active and take up the sport,” said Toby Claudio, President of Toby’s Sports.
With pickleball’s rapid growth in the country, the SM Pickleball SuperSeries aims to introduce more people to the sport while giving amateur players the chance to compete on a grand stage. Whether you’re a competitor, a fan, or simply curious, this is an event you won’t want to miss!
