PPL Philippine Pickleball League Rules should be applied equally — regardless if the players are local or international.

In Advanced Men’s Doubles, the guidelines were strictly enforced, even when the mistake was made by the umpire, leaving the players to bear the consequences. In Open Men’s Singles, why does it seem different? Fair competition starts with consistent decisions.

Congratulations to Fahd Kenji Banico and Ghing Tayab Kadile for their impressive performance at the — Advanced Mixed Doubles Category!

Despite the last-minute partner change after Fahd’s original partner was protested, the duo showed resilience, teamwork, and determination to fight their way into the quarterfinals. A strong performance under pressure and a great display of competitive spirit.

Keep pushing and representing with pride!

To the PPL Mindanao organizers and the pickleball community,

We respectfully raise our concern regarding the semifinal match (Men's Doubles Advanced Category) incident during the recent tournament, where players were officially instructed by the umpire that the game format was “race to 15” instead of the prescribed “race to 11.”

The players, who are minors, relied in good faith on the authority and instructions of the assigned official. The match proceeded under those instructions until the game (score 12-12) was later stopped by the organizers after the teams had already changed courts at 8 points.

This situation created confusion, disrupted the flow of the match, and affected the fairness and integrity of the competition. The players should not bear the consequences of an officiating and administrative error beyond their control.

In the spirit of sportsmanship, fairness, and accountability, we respectfully call on the PPL Mindanao to conduct a proper review and declare the championship match null and void pending a fair resolution of the semifinal dispute.

This statement is not intended to attack any individual, team, or official, but rather to uphold the principles of fair play and protect young athletes who trusted the decisions made during official competition.

We hope this matter will be handled with transparency, professionalism, and fairness for all parties involved.

Let us all support the Dumaguete-HomeWorld Construction Team on Day 2 (May 22) of the PPL Mindanao Leg! 🔥

Watch out for exciting matchups as Yuan Solon and Jacob Diago may face Quang D**g in the Men’s Singles Open Category, while Fahd Banico and Prince Togonon battles it out in the Men’s Singles Advanced Category.

Let’s cheer for our Dumaguete athletes as they represent the City of Gentle People with pride, heart, and determination!
