hydration company Once Upon a Coconut is leaning into fan engagement with a national sweepstakes tied to the 2026 DoorDash MLP Finals. The company announced that one grand prize winner and three guests will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Championship Weekend in New York City, including finals tickets, airfare, and hotel accommodations.
The promotion launches alongside the start of the 2026 Major League Pickleball season in Dallas and marks the second year of Once Upon a Coconut’s partnership as the league’s Official Coconut Water sponsor. Fans can enter through the company’s website, at select retail locations, or onsite at MLP events throughout the season.
The 2026 MLP calendar includes stops in Dallas, Columbus, St. Louis, Austin, St. Petersburg, Newport Beach, San Diego, Grand Rapids, Orlando, and culminates with the Finals in New York City. Orlando will also host the regular season finale at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, further reinforcing Florida’s growing role in the pro pickleball ecosystem.
Founded in 2020, Once Upon a Coconut has positioned itself around clean-label hydration and lifestyle branding, using pickleball’s fast-growing participation base to expand consumer visibility. The company says its coconut water products will continue to be featured at all MLP events during the season, targeting both professional athletes and recreational players seeking alternatives to traditional sports drinks.
