Robert Miller Topic Author Feb 3, 2026, 6:45 AM #1 Confused about all the different rating systems (DUPR, UTPR, etc). Can someone explain how these work?
Amanda Wilson Feb 3, 2026, 10:45 AM #2 UTPR is USA Pickleball's system, tied to sanctioned tournament results.
Tom Garcia Feb 4, 2026, 5:45 AM #3 DUPR is becoming the most common. It's based on match results - wins against higher rated players boost you more.
Michelle Lee Feb 4, 2026, 3:45 PM #4 Self-rating is still common at local events - be honest about your skill level!
Tom Garcia Feb 7, 2026, 6:45 AM #5 Your rating will fluctuate as you play more rated matches. Don't stress about small changes.
