How the pickleball rankings work

Since the 2026-27 season the main pro ranking is the PPA Tour's World Pickleball Rankings (WPR), announced on August 5, 2026. It puts every player on one list per gender, weighting gender doubles 50%, mixed doubles 35% and singles 15%, and counts each player's best 14 results from the last 52 weeks. The singles and doubles lists are the PPA's current seedings, built the same way and used to seed each event.

For pickleball coaches

Turn the big tournaments into busier lessons

  • Run a watch-and-play clinic

    Show one rally from the weekend's final, then drill the dinks, resets and third-shot drops the pros used.

  • Help players enter amateur events

    Many big events have amateur divisions. Players with a goal book more lessons in the weeks before.

  • Grow your group sessions

    Pickleball is social. Use big tournament weeks to fill clinics and sell lesson packs.

TopSpinCRM runs the admin for pickleball coaches.Players book and pay online, lesson packs and reminders run themselves, and you can share progress notes with parents.
