Irish Open Pickleball 2026 – Entry by Ballot

 

The Irish Open Pickleball 2026 is set to be one of the biggest pickleball events ever hosted in Ireland, bringing together players from across the country and around the world for an unforgettable tournament experience.

 

Due to the expected demand for places, entries this year will operate through a ballot system.

How the Ballot Works

Rather than registering on a first-come, first-served basis, players will submit their details during the ballot entry window. Once the entry period closes, players will be selected at random to participate in the tournament.

This approach allows us to manage demand fairly while ensuring a balanced mix of players from Ireland/Northern Ireland and internationally.

Key Dates

Players selected in the ballot will receive an email with instructions on how to complete their official tournament registration.
