Pickleball’s global rating system has just taken another step forward. DUPR has announced a new partnership with Good Game Sports (GGS), an event management platform designed to help clubs and facilities run more matches with less hassle.
For players, this means more of the games you already play will now count towards your official DUPR rating. For clubs, it’s about cutting down the admin and letting the software handle the heavy lifting.
How GGS Makes Life Easier
Running tournaments, leagues, or even open play sessions can be a logistical headache. Good Game Sports is built to take that stress away. The platform automates court assignments, keeps track of scores and standings, and even adjusts on the fly when players drop out or schedules change.
With more than 15 formats available, GGS gives operators the flexibility to host events without needing extra staff or hours. It’s about creating a smoother experience for everyone involved.
What the Partnership Delivers
The integration between DUPR and GGS means clubs can now pull player ratings directly into the system when setting up events. Once the matches are done, results are uploaded straight back to DUPR, and ratings update automatically.
In practice, this covers:
- Direct rating pulls for accurate seeding and formats
- Score uploads from GGS to DUPR after each event
- Automatic rating updates based on those results
Why It Matters
For the everyday player, this partnership ensures that club leagues, local tournaments, and even regular open play sessions contribute to their DUPR profile. More matches logged, more accurate ratings, and a clearer picture of where you stand.
For operators, it’s a chance to run more events without burning out staff or drowning in paperwork.
