40 Cities, One League: The Future of Amateur Padel in the USA

In this episode of Padel Smash Academy, Cesc and Julian sit down with Luis Fernando Ramirez, Director of the National Padel League (NPL), to discuss a landmark moment for amateur padel in the United States: the launch of the USA National Team League. Endorsed by the U.S. Padel Association (USPA), this is the first structured amateur padel team league with nationwide reach, set to kick off in Fall 2025.

Luis shares how the league will bring competition to 40 cities across six regions, giving amateur players the chance to represent their city in a professional-style, team-based format. From city-level play to the Regional Championships and culminating in the National Finals in Miami (Feb 2026), the league creates a clear pathway for players of all skill levels to compete, connect, and grow within the sport.

Cesc and Julian dive into the details of eligibility, team structure, competition format, and the exciting prizes awaiting the first-ever National Champions. Most importantly, they explore how this initiative will strengthen community bonds, elevate amateur padel, and expand the sport’s footprint across the U.S.

Whether you’re a beginner looking to join a local team, or a seasoned player eager to compete nationally, this episode offers a front-row seat to the future of American padel.
