Still not sure if you need to get rated? Let's talk more about understanding UTR-P Ratings. Players often seek a clear and accurate way to measure their skill level and track their progress. The UTR Pickleball Rating (UTR-P) is a system that provides a dynamic, accurate, and reliable way to rank players.

This is a global pickleball rating system that promotes fair and competitive play across the pickleball world. Players are rated based on actual results, not age, gender, or other factors. Equipped with over a decade of expertise as the creator of the gold-standard UTR Rating for tennis, UTR Sports offers the most reliable global rating for all pickleball players.

The UTR-P is designed to rate every kind of player, whether you're just swinging your first paddle or smashing your way through pro-level tournaments.

How UTR-P Rating Works:
But how is the UTR Pickleball Rating (UTR-P) calculated? Players with match results see a rating on a numerical scale of 1-10.0. Players without enough match results will receive a provisional rating (P1-P5) based on questionnaire results. The rating automatically converts from provisional to numerical and moves up or down based on results after a few matches. Ratings update every 24 hours.

This rating system ranges from 1 to 10, representing a spectrum of skill levels. Provisional ratings are as follows:
P1: Beginner
P2: Social/Casual
P3: Intermediate
P4: Advanced
P5-10: Expert/Pro

UTR-P’s approach is the most accurate and most comprehensive. It is utilized by both USA Pickleball and APP as their ratings, rankings, event, tournament, and league technology provider and updates every 24 hours.
