The Sabala IPA Nationals 2025 was a landmark four-day sports project organized by the Karnataka Pickleball Association under the newly recognized National Sports Federation (NSF) guidelines. Hosted at The Sports School in Bengaluru from November 13–16, the tournament successfully mobilized over 1,200 elite and amateur athletes across 20+ Indian states.

The project featured an extensive competitive infrastructure, deploying 17 world-class acrylic courts to accommodate age divisions from Under-12 to Masters 70+. Financially backed by an ₹11 Lakh prize pool, the event also served as a crucial global launchpad, marking India’s first-ever PWR2000-tier tournament for direct international ranking points.

Operationally, it secured extensive media coverage, driving mass digital engagement and securing corporate collaborations that solidified pickleball's position in India's mainstream sports ecosystem.
