My DUPR Coach
At National Junior Pickleball (NJP), your DUPR rating is the primary tool
we use to assign divisions—ensuring you’re matched against players
with similar skills for the best balance of competition and fun.
WHY EVERY JUNIOR PLAYER NEEDS A DUPR RATING
A DUPR rating is like your pickleball report card—it gives an accurate, universal measure of your skill level, no matter where you play or who you play against.
For junior players, a DUPR rating:
- Ensures fair and competitive matchups
- Helps track progress over time
- Opens doors to higher-level tournaments and teams
- Builds confidence by showing measurable improvement
With DUPR your rating moves with you—whether you’re playing in your hometown or at a national championship.
THE FASTEST WAY TO GET YOUR RATING
