Jennifer Davis Topic Author Jan 10, 2026, 12:15 PM #1 Confused about all the different rating systems (DUPR, UTPR, etc). Can someone explain how these work?
Robert Miller Jan 11, 2026, 12:15 AM #2 DUPR is becoming the most common. It's based on match results - wins against higher rated players boost you more.
Mike Johnson Jan 11, 2026, 2:15 AM #3 UTPR is USA Pickleball's system, tied to sanctioned tournament results.
Tom Garcia Jan 12, 2026, 9:15 AM #4 Self-rating is still common at local events - be honest about your skill level!
David Williams Jan 13, 2026, 8:15 AM #5 Your rating will fluctuate as you play more rated matches. Don't stress about small changes.
