Mumbai Pickleball Cup Returns With Singles Category in Season 2
The Mumbai Pickleball Cup is starting its second season.
Pickleball is a racket sport played with paddles and a plastic ball.
This season will have singles, men’s doubles and mixed doubles matches.
The singles category was added after the first season sold out.
Players can compete every month and collect points during the season.
The points awarded at each tournament become larger over time, so later entrants can still catch up.
The event will be held on September 27, 2026, in Malad West.
Organisers say the league is designed to help players compete regularly and build a community.
The Mumbai Pickleball Cup begins Season 2 on September 27, 2026, at Stratum Play in Malad West.
Season 2 includes Mixed Doubles, Men’s Doubles and a newly added Singles category.
Men’s Doubles and Singles have sold out, with 60 to 80 players expected to participate.
The league runs through monthly tournaments, culminating in a Champions Cup in August 2027.
Matches include group-stage games and knockouts, with every team guaranteed at least three matches.

Quotes
Isaac
Founder and organizer of the Mumbai Pickleball Cup
“We wanted the opposite — something that happens on a fixed date every month, where you know exactly what you're getting, you're guaranteed at least three matches, and you're playing against the same people often enough to actually see yourself improve”

“The bigger thing is community. When it's monthly, people stop being strangers. They meet new partners, make friends, find opportunities off the court. That matters as much to us as who wins”
