THE EXPERIENCE
The WrkPod Pickleball Championship is more than just a tournament; it is a professional-grade tribute to the skill and spirit of our local athletes. By bridging the gap between our vibrant community courts and the rigorous standards of the global game, we are creating a stage where homegrown talent can truly shine. This June, we invite you to experience a weekend where high-stakes competition meets the unique hospitality of the City of Gentle People, featuring international guest pros, a ₱500,000 prize pool, and a high-scale DUPR-integrated tournament structure.
WHAT’S IN STORE
We have moved beyond traditional seeding to provide a tournament structure that rewards active play and verified skill. By implementing high-scale DUPR standards, we ensure every bracket is as competitive as it is fair.
Every match in the WrkPod Championship is governed by the USA Pickleball Rulebook, providing a professional and disciplined environment for all athletes.
Our goal is to ensure a balanced field where the gap between players is minimized and every game is a true test of ability. By utilizing verified data to structure our brackets, we create a high-octane experience for our Intermediate players and an elite proving ground for the Open category talent.
Slots in our Championship are secured through a two step verification. After you pre-register, our Technical Committee reviews all applications to ensure players are placed in the correct categories based on their DUPR ratings and tournament history.
Once approved, you will receive an official invitation to finalize your registration and secure your spot on the court.
EVENT DETAILS
The WrkPod Pickleball Championship is a multi day experience designed to celebrate the sport and its players.
Level Up Your Game (8 AM – 6 PM)
The journey begins at PWR Court and The Dink Club with an opportunity to sharpen your edge before the competition. Our guest pros will lead exclusive Masterclasses focused on the technical nuances of the game. Slots are strictly limited to ensure high-quality coaching, making this a rare opportunity to learn professional strategy from the best in the world.
Setting the Stage
Join us at The Dink Club from 1:00 PM – 5:30 PM for the official Press Conference and Player Kit Claiming, followed by a vital Championship Player Briefing to ensure every athlete is ready for the grind. The purpose of this event is to bridge the gap between our local community and global tournament standards through DUPR integration and professional integrity.
To cap off the day, watch Wally Green and Harrison Brown showcase elite play in a Pro Exhibition, where they will share secrets on mastering the “unattackable” soft game and reset drills. Plus, the court opens for a Meet and Play where everyone who registered for the tournament is invited to challenge the pros in a high-stakes race to 5 points!
The Battle for the Brackets
The first day of the Championship is a test of consistency and stamina as we move into the Elimination (Round Robin) rounds for each bracket across all categories. Every point logged into DUPR matters in this ultimate test of grit, as teams fight for their standing to determine who moves on to the high-pressure Quarter-Finals and secures their spot for the Championship day.
Championship Day & The Ultimate Challenge
The final day is reserved for the elite, kicking off with high-pressure Semi-Finals that lead into the Grand Championship Matches for both Intermediate and Open categories. Once the final ball is called, we will hold a formal Awarding Ceremony to honor our winners.
As the crowning moment of the WrkPod Pickleball Championship, all champions across every category will earn more than just their trophy and prizes – they will earn the exclusive opportunity to face off against guest pros Wally Green and Harrison Brown in the Ultimate Pro Challenge.
