From May 21-24, 2026, the 2026 National Pickleball Club Championship will officially take place at the HappyLand Pickleball complex (Long Bien, Hanoi), bringing together 683 athletes from nearly 100 clubs nationwide. This is considered one of the largest pickleball tournaments in Vietnam at present, marking a significant step forward in the sport's professionalization.
The tournament aims to promote the practice of pickleball, improve competitive skills, and create a platform for connection among the pickleball community nationwide. Athletes will compete in two categories: amateur and advanced, with various events including men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles.
Beyond the intense competition on the court, the atmosphere outside the competition area was also vibrant with many participating brands offering experiential activities for the community. Zocker made a strong impression with its interactive booth, where players and spectators could directly explore the product ecosystem and participate in many engaging activities throughout the tournament.
At Zocker's space, the pickleball community had the opportunity to experience new products firsthand, from rackets and accessories to training equipment. The ability to touch, try, and feel the products directly provided players with a better perspective before choosing products that suited their playing style.
In addition, the booth area hosted many interactive mini-games, offering participants the chance to win attractive prizes. These activities contributed to a lively atmosphere, helping players socialize, connect, and spread a positive sporting spirit.
Beyond just the experience, the Zocker product ecosystem was also introduced along with a series of special offers during the event. This was an opportunity for the community to access many pickleball products at discounted prices, while also updating themselves on new equipment trends for training and competition.
The presence of partner brands like Zocker shows that pickleball in Vietnam is developing not only in terms of amateur or professional competition, but also forming an increasingly complete ecosystem around the player community. National-scale tournaments are now not simply places for competition, but also become meeting points for experience, connection, and promoting sports culture.
With nearly 700 athletes participating and widespread support from the community, the 2026 National Pickleball Club Championship is a significant milestone, opening up a more professional development phase for pickleball in Vietnam in the future.
