For each match, the algorithm calculates a match rating and a match weight for each player. A player’s UTR-P Rating is the weighted average of up to 60 of their most recent match ratings.

Play Well – Performing well in matches is the easiest way to improve your UTR-P Rating. If the match is out of hand, don’t give up! It does not matter whether you play higher- or lower-rated opponents; you can improve your UTR-P either way by winning more points than expected.

Play Often – The more matches you play, the quicker your UTR-P Rating will reflect your current form. The algorithm is especially accurate for those who play often against a variety of opponents rated above and below you.

Be Patient – Since your UTR-P Rating is a rolling weighted average, the effect of new results is slightly lagged. Your UTR-P Rating may not fully reflect a recent outcome right away, but it will over time.

UTR Sports has a wide range of pickleball events, including flex leagues and tournaments throughout the world! Players can search and find pickleball events around the world on the UTR Sports website and on our iOS app, UTR Sports.
