USPF Rating

USPF Rating:

The USPF rating is designed by our pickleball professionals and experts

  • Ratings calculated the same norm using a Glicko-2 ratings system.
  • 4-digit ratings for singles and doubles both men and women.
  • 2-digit ratings calculated at the end of each calendar month based on the level of a player’s 4-digit ratings.
  • Performance based ratings versus subjective ratings for tournament entry and bracket registration for non-sanctioned tournaments to ensure proper bracket placement, seeding and eliminating the sandbagging experienced at times in the self-rated process.
  • A new tournament player’s USPF will be calculated based on the results of that players first tournament taking into account match results and opposing players’ ratings.
