PENANG, MALAYSIA — AP33 is strengthening its connection with Malaysia’s growing sports community by sponsoring a four-player pickleball team set to compete at the Tom Khoo Georgetown Pickleball Championship 2026, taking place on 5–6 September 2026 at G.O.A.T Sungai Pinang, Penang.
Representing @buddy.syndicate by AP33 Sports will be four passionate pickleball players — @enkimsayhi, @ritchielee_pb, @nutznicha.pb, and @mtejas298 — who will take to the court together during the two-day championship.
The sponsorship marks another step in AP33’s ongoing involvement in sports-related initiatives, with pickleball becoming an increasingly important part of the brand’s community engagement.
Supporting Malaysia’s Growing Pickleball Community
Pickleball has been gaining significant attention in Malaysia, bringing together competitive players, recreational athletes and an expanding community of fans.
The Tom Khoo Georgetown Pickleball Championship 2026 provides another platform for that community to come together in Penang.
According to information published by the event organizer, the tournament is scheduled for 5 and 6 September at G.O.A.T 3 Sungai Pinang and features both the Tom Khoo Cup and Penang Cup categories.
Through its sponsorship of the four-player team, AP33 aims to support athletes who share the values of teamwork, determination and competitive spirit.
Rather than simply appearing alongside the tournament, the partnership puts AP33 directly behind the players as they prepare to compete on court.
Meet the AP33-Sponsored Team
The AP33 team brings together four players:
@enkimsayhi
@ritchielee_pb
@nutznicha.pb
@mtejas298
Each player brings their own experience and playing style to the lineup, while their collaboration as a team will be central to their campaign in Georgetown.
The championship will give the four players an opportunity to test themselves in a competitive environment while representing AP33 throughout the tournament.
A Major Pickleball Weekend in Penang
The promotional materials for the championship describe the Tom Khoo Cup as an open team event, with a total prize pool of RM51,000. The Penang Cup is presented as a closed team event, offering a further RM10,600 prize pool.
That brings the advertised combined prize pool across the two events to RM61,600.
Beyond the competition itself, the tournament is positioned as a major gathering for the local pickleball community, bringing players and supporters together for two days of action at G.O.A.T Sungai Pinang.
For AP33’s sponsored players, however, the focus will remain firmly on the court.
AP33 Continues Its Connection With Sports
The sponsorship reflects AP33’s broader effort to build meaningful connections with sports communities and support athletes participating in emerging competitions.
Pickleball’s emphasis on teamwork, quick decision-making and competitive energy makes the upcoming championship a natural opportunity for AP33 to support players directly.
With @enkimsayhi, @ritchielee_pb, @nutznicha.pb and @mtejas298 carrying the team into the tournament, attention now turns to Penang as they prepare for two days of competition.
The Tom Khoo Georgetown Pickleball Championship 2026 will take place on 5–6 September 2026 at G.O.A.T Sungai Pinang, Penang.
For AP33 and its sponsored team, the tournament represents more than another competition — it is an opportunity to step onto the court, represent the partnership and be part of Malaysia’s expanding pickleball scene.
