Pickleball is a social sport played mostly for fun, making the OPL Rating the perfect way to get a skill assessment based on your recreational play. This rating represents your current skill level from your “open play” games. The OPL Rating Systemis similar to the widely used DUPR system in that it’s designed to rate players based on recreational and league play, not just sanctioned tournaments. This is a key differentiator from traditional systems focused solely on competitive event outcomes.
