With smiles, competition, and a student-centred atmosphere, the league made its mark - and 2025/26 promises even more.

Fixtures are played via NUPL's 'event day' format, where multiple universities meet at once, often with 70+ attendees, for high energy competition and a growing off-court experience.The season closes with Finals Day: a celebration of student padel, where top athletes battle for the national league title amid an event with food and drink, prizes, raffles, brand partners, and a unique, student-focused atmosphere!
