The Grand Trio DUPR Championship medals were designed with elements that proudly represent San Pablo City and its identity. 🏅

🐟 Tilapia — a familiar symbol of San Pablo’s thriving lake culture and local livelihood.

🌴 Coconut Tree — representing the rich agricultural heritage and landscape of San Pablo and Laguna.

🌊 Lake & Waves — inspired by San Pablo’s identity as the City of Seven Lakes, with the flowing waves celebrating the waters that have shaped our city and community.

And just like the tournament itself, the design is completed by three pieces coming together as one—a tribute to teamwork, unity, and the Grand Trio format.

A medal made not only to recognize victory, but to carry a piece of San Pablo with every champion.

The SPPA Grand Trio DUPR Championship at Southbond Pickleball Hub was officially a success — bringing together the pickleball community for a day of competition, teamwork, sportsmanship, and camaraderie.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the players, supporters, volunteers, tournament staff, and especially our hardworking referees who helped ensure fair play and smooth matches throughout the event. Your dedication, energy, and love for the game made The Grand Trio truly unforgettable.
