Some Announcements Are Worth Stopping For
Mint Sport is proud to confirm that Cannonballz™ are the official ball of the Ultimate Pickleball League for the 2026 season. Every tournament the UPL organises, every match played across their regions, every moment of competition captured on camera — Cannonballz™ is the only ball in play.
For us, this is more than a partnership. It's a statement about what competitive pickleball deserves at the highest level: equipment built with the same seriousness that elite athletes bring to the game.
The UPL was founded on a belief that pickleball should be accessible, competitive, and built for long-term growth. Mint Sport was built on the same idea. That's why this felt right from the very first conversation.
What Is the Ultimate Pickleball League?
The UPL is a city-based semi-professional pickleball league built to give competitive players what the sport has long needed: a real structure, a real pathway, and a genuine league experience between recreational play and the pro tour.
Regional divisions feed into a national championship, with teams spanning the US and expanding internationally into Costa Rica and the Philippines, and beyond. Match results are validated through DUPR+, building credible competitive records that carry real weight as the sport continues to expand.
What started as a regional US league now spans three countries, with junior circuits in the Philippines and new expansion teams being added every season.
This is the proving ground for the next generation of elite pickleball athletes — and Cannonballz™ is the ball they trust.
