Being a DUPR league, once you start playing in our league, your match results are recorded with DUPR to give you a rating: 

•  DUPR uses an algorithm that considers your last 30 singles or 60 doubles matches.
•  You can get an initial rating after just one match result, but 5-10 matches will provide a more accurate rating.
•  The system rates players on a scale from 2.000 to 8.000, with higher numbers indicating better skill levels.
•  DUPR calculates ratings based on three main factors: points won, victory (win or loss), and the type of result (e.g., recreational play, tournament, etc.).
•  To maintain your reliability rating, Players need to maintain a certain number of matches within specific time frames to ensure their ratings remain reliable:
• 3 results in the last 90 days: This helps keep your rating active.
• 6 results in the last 180 days: This further solidifies your rating's reliability.
• 12 results in the last 270 days: This is required for a fully reliable rating.

Remember, DUPR is free and accessible to all players, regardless of skill level or location.
