Four VIBE Pickleball Teams Officially Merge With Major League Pickleball as a Result of PPA Tour/MLP Merger Finalization

As a result of the finalization of the merger between the Carvana PPA Tour and Major League Pickleball (MLP by Margaritaville), the four VIBE pickleball teams have officially been merged with the 20 MLP teams to create a 24-team league. MLP will feature eight regular season events, a mid-season tournament and the season-ending playoffs (the full schedule of MLP events can be found here).

The four teams previously known as VIBE teams are the AZ Drive, Dallas Pickleball Club, Seattle Pioneers and the Utah Black Diamonds.

More than 150 professional pickleball players – including the top ranked players in the world – have signed multi-year contracts with the new combined entity, with many of them set to participate in an expanded calendar that brings together the individual (PPA Tour) and team (MLP) events throughout the year.
