Pickleheads Just Made Getting a DUPR Rating Super Simple

RateMyGame makes it easier than ever to get a credentialed DUPR rating—right from your local court, no tournament required.

All you need is a short video (2–5 minutes) of live doubles play. Submit it via the MyDUPRCoach app, and a certified coach will evaluate your game and assign you an official DUPR rating.

✔️ No score tracking
✔️ No clinics
✔️ No wait

Even better? It only costs $50 as a one-time fee, and the process is simple: online checkout, upload your clip, and you’re done. If you and a partner rate yourselves together, you both get a 40% discount.

More Than Just a Number

This isn’t just a quick “You’re a 3.5—good luck!” type of rating. What makes RateMyGame special is the value-added feedback that comes with it.

One player, Andrew, shared how surprised he was by the depth of his evaluation. His coach, David Kempster, didn’t just assign a number—he broke down key plays, offered positioning tips, and gave constructive advice like a real coaching session.

“Honestly, it felt like my first private lesson. I didn’t expect that level of detail,” Andrew said.

That’s the kind of personalized feedback every player can benefit from—not just a rating, but real insight into how to improve.

A Lower Barrier to Entry

This program was designed to make the rating process more accessible and beginner-friendly:

  • $50 flat fee (no hidden costs)
  • Simple online process (record, upload, done)
  • No confusing steps or tournament requirements
  • Integrated directly with DUPR and Pickleheads

You don’t need to be tech-savvy or tournament-savvy. This is for everyday players who just want a reliable way to get rated and play better games.

Why It Matters: Matching You With the Right Games

Right now, only 5% of Pickleheads users have a DUPR rating on their profile. That means most players are still guessing—and that leads to frustratingly unbalanced matches.

A verified DUPR rating helps solve that by:

  • Matching you with partners and opponents at your actual skill level
  • Reducing mismatched games that kill the fun
  • Making tournaments, leagues, and round robins fairer and easier to run

With more players using the system, the whole community benefits from better games, clearer expectations, and faster skill development.

Built to Educate, Not Just Evaluate

One of the most important aspects of RateMyGame is its educational value:

  • Ratings come from certified DUPR coaches
  • Each review includes feedback tailored to your game
  • The system encourages learning and improvement, not just labels

This creates a supportive pathway for players who want to grow—and removes the intimidation factor that sometimes comes with ratings and competition.

Seamlessly Integrated with Pickleheads

Already using Pickleheads to find courts and games? Even better.

Your DUPR rating syncs right into your profile, so organizers can set up rating-based games, and you can find players who match your level. It’s the final missing piece in the Pickleheads experience.

From finding a court to playing to getting rated—you can now do it all in one place.

Who It’s For

  • New Players: Start with a real benchmark—no guesswork.
  • Recreational Players: Know where you stand and how to improve.
  • Competitive Players: Get tournament-ready with a trusted rating.
  • Organizers & Coaches: Run better events with verified skill data.

At its core, RateMyGame is about lowering the barrier to entry, adding real value, and making pickleball more enjoyable and fair for everyone.

  1. Accessible pricing and process
  2. Real coaching insights
  3. More balanced, skill-matched games
  4. Integration with platforms you already use
  5. A fun, educational path to improvement

Get Rated the Right Way

No more “maybe I’m a 3.5” or “I think I could hang with 4.0s.” With RateMyGame, you’ll finally have a verified rating—and the feedback to level up even faster.

Record. Upload. Get Rated. Improve.

It’s that easy. And it’s built for you.
