Fast access to your member’s player rating

The DUPR rating is often used to assign pickleball players of a similar level to group clinics or leagues. 🔢 If a player either does not yet have an official rating or feels that their current rating does not reflect their actual level, they can be rated by the Wingfield Box's Player Assessment mode. Dashboard Update 2.2.0 now makes it even easier for you to access these ratings.🔓

• Player Ratings: Explore a new page featuring pickleball assessment scores of your Box users.

• Automatic translation to DUPR: We translate the Player Assessment Score into a hypothetical DUPR rating that you can use to assign your members to appropriate leagues or open play sessions.

• Time-Based Filters: Filter graphs by year or the last 12 months for a clearer overview.

With Dashboard access, your Front Desk team can now quickly assign your members to your League or Open Play formats. 👩🏼‍💻 Let your members know about this new option!
