Pickleball is currently the fastest-growing sport in the United States.It is a paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis (Ping-Pong). It can be played indoors or outdoors as singles (two players) or doubles (four players).
Most of our pickleball matches are played socially, it helps to have an easy-to-understand system for gauging your skill level and guiding your progress. An OPL Rating is free and anyone can have a rating. It’s likely the only pickleball rating you’ll ever need.
The primary difference is the OPL rating system is specific to the myopl.net platform and implemented as the global standard for recreational pickleball ratings, while DUPR is a widely adopted, global standard for competitive and tournament pickleball ratings. The key differences exist in their scope, implementation, and recognition.
There’s no overstating how quickly pickleball has taken over. For the past three years, it has consistently been named the fastest-growing sport in the USA by the Sports & Fitness Industry Association (SFIA).
On the myopl.net platform, the “OPL rating” is the core metric, while “league ranking” refers to a player’s position within a specific league based on various standard league metrics. They are related but distinct.
MYOPL.net has launched its new OPL Pickleball Rating system, designed to provide more precise and reliable ratings for pickleball players worldwide.
At MYOPL, we’re making it easier than ever to define skill levels, monitor progress, and remove the roadblocks that prevent players from earning an official rating.
