A More Balanced and Accessible SUP Circuit

For 2026, the European SUP League has introduced a new competition format built around three mini circuits. This structure is designed to help athletes:

  • Reduce travel demands
  • Combine ESL events with other major SUP competitions
  • Participate in more races throughout the season
  • Plan their training and logistics more efficiently

The distribution of locations—from the Iberian Peninsula to Central and Eastern Europe—reflects the ESL’sgoal of creating a more homogeneous and representative circuit. The schedule highlights the continued growth of stand-up paddle across Europe and the league’s commitment to supporting that expansion.
