How It Works for Clubs

Clubs register their inclusion in the 2026 AMC with the Pickleball Australia AMC League Coordinator

Club league coordinator sets up club league and sessions in Pickleball Brackets

Participants book in for session/s (and pay) week to week

Software + League Coordinator sort participants into league groups using DUPR as the data reference point

Participants play in group of x players

Coordinator enters results into software live

Participants move up and down a ladder based on weekly results

Repeat steps 2-5 for 10-12 weeks

Top performers progress through to regional or state qualifiers

At a club level, gender and age are not taken into consideration when grouping individuals each week. Player Rating is the priority.

Representatives from clubs in three age groups will progress through to regional/state level:

Players will be initially ranked with DUPR as the reference data point.
The 2026 AMC ladder algorithm will record, and rank players based on wins v losses (the 2025 POP system will NOT be used).
Players will move up and down the ladder and be grouped week-to-week based on their live DUPR ladder ranking.
