KNOW WHERE
YOU STAND
DPR is the community-owned rating system built exclusively for Deaf pickleball players. Fair, transparent, and yours.
OUR MISSION
BUILT FOR THE
DEAF COMMUNITY
Deaf athletes deserve a rating system that reflects their competitive community โ not an afterthought in a hearing-dominated platform.
Community-Owned
DPR is governed by the Deaf pickleball community โ not a corporation. Every decision is made with Deaf athletes in mind, from algorithm design to who gets verified.
Transparent by Design
Every rating can be traced back to every match. Our open algorithm โ built on proven ELO science โ means your number is never a black box. You earn it on the court.
Competitive Foundation
DPR is the foundation for competitive Deaf pickleball at every level โ from local club matches to regional and national tournaments.
SIMPLE PROCESS
HOW YOUR RATING WORKS
Compete
Play in any DPB-affiliated tournament or event. Singles, doubles, mixed, or skinny โ every format counts toward a separate rating.
Verify
Tournament directors submit results. DPR trusts verified tournament directors โ match results are confirmed by people who were there.
Rated
Your DPR updates automatically across all relevant categories. The more you compete, the more reliable โ and accurate โ your rating becomes.
8 RATING CATEGORIES
ONE PLAYER,
MULTIPLE RATINGS
Your doubles rating and your singles rating are separate. Being elite in one doesn't mask weaknesses in another โ DPR reflects your complete game.
+ Scrambler (Independent)
Random-partner format rated separately โ doesn't affect your Overall DPR
