How RPR works
RPR is your skill level for each sport, from 1.0 to 10.0. It starts with a quick assessment and moves with every confirmed Rated match.
It is not USTA, not UTR, not DUPR. It only describes how you play right now, on this app, in this sport.
Join the waitlistThe ladder
1.0 – 2.5Beginner
New to the sport, or back after a long break. You're still making contact consistent.
2.6 – 4.0Intermediate
Rallies hold up, shots land in, and you know roughly where to stand.
4.1 – 5.5Advanced
You have a weapon or two and can handle a match under pressure.
5.6 – 7.0Expert
You've competed. You change tactics mid-match and you can win ugly.
7.1 – 10.0Elite
Tournament level, and you're still chasing the last few points.
How it starts
A short assessment — a few questions about how you play — puts you on the ladder. That starting number is a guess, and it's allowed to be wrong.
How it moves
Only confirmed Rated results move RPR. Both sides report the same score, and the number adjusts by how much you were expected to win. Friendlies never touch it.
One rating per sport
Your tennis RPR says nothing about your pickleball RPR. Each sport keeps its own rating, record and preferences.
The RPR medal
Your medal shows how much the app can trust your rating. Friendly matches count here — they're still real games.
Self-rated
0 confirmed matches — your rating is still the assessment's guess.
Provisional
1–2 confirmed matches — close, and still moving.
Official
3 or more confirmed matches — the rating is earned.
What never touches it
No star ratings on people. No thumbs up or down. No "would play again". Nobody can rate you with a tap.
After three matches you get a reliability score — that's about showing up, not about how good you are, and it never changes your RPR.
Your wins and losses are separate from your rating: a Rated result moves both, a friendly moves neither.
