What APP Next Kansas City Lists for Its October 23–25 Player Development Event

APP’s official event page lists its APP Next Kansas City program for October 23–25, 2026, at Chicken N Pickle in Overland Park, Kansas. For families and young adult players who are considering the event, the useful details are the age focus, the three-day format and the registration path—not assumptions about a player’s fit.

According to APP’s event and FAQ page, APP Next is a development pathway for top American pickleball players aged 23 and under. APP says its three-day tournaments pair competition with coaching and education from its senior professionals.

What the official page lists

APP lists the Kansas City event at Chicken N Pickle, 5901 W. 135th St., Overland Park, Kansas 66223. The listed dates are October 23 through October 25.

Its FAQ directs players to the APP Next Events tab and Pickleball Den for registration. It also says a DUPR account is required for that registration path and that event scores are shared with DUPR after the event. APP’s own waiver and a Chicken N Pickle waiver are listed as participation requirements.

A simple planning checklist

• Confirm eligibility and the current registration status on APP’s official page.
• Review the APP and venue waiver instructions before travel.
• Use the official listing for any changes to timing, format or venue information.

The page describes a specific development program, rather than a general public play session. That distinction matters when a player is building a season around developmental events, club play and travel. For the wider professional calendar, see CourtCore’s APP calendar guide.
