Most pickleball gets played at the club. Now clubs on PickleMap can make those sessions DUPR-rated play, score games courtside and send results straight to DUPR from the same dashboard they use to run everything else.

PickleMap, the pickleball platform built for clubs, is now an approved DUPR integration partner. Any club on PickleMap can make a session or event DUPR-rated, and players can connect their DUPR account and play rated games at their local club. PickleMap is live first in the UK.

What PickleMap does for pickleball clubs

Running a club already means juggling bookings, payments, group chats and who’s on next. PickleMap gives clubs one free dashboard for all of it, and puts the club on a map so players nearby can find it.

• Your club on the map: Add your club in about a minute and get a public page that players find in search.
• Bookings and payments: Players book and pay online, with money going straight to the club’s own Stripe account.
• Members and newcomers: Approve members, take free or paid memberships and hold newcomer places for first-timers.
• Game Organiser: Set up fair games, rests and court rotation for doubles or singles, with a court board for the hall TV.
• Events: Run tournaments, round robins, ladders and socials with online entries, draws and live scores.

How DUPR-rated play works on PickleMap

Clubs link to DUPR once from the club’s DUPR tab. From there, organizers choose session by session which ones are rated.

Scoring happens courtside. Organizers enter scores in PickleMap’s Game Organiser as each game ends, and it keeps working with no signal in the hall. Nothing goes to DUPR until the organizer presses Send, and PickleMap flags ties or unlikely scores first.

For clubs, the integration also means:

• Rated sessions, leagues, ladders and DUPR events show on PickleMap, so DUPR players nearby can find them. 
• Every member’s DUPR rating appears in the members list, which helps when grouping players by level.
• It all comes at no extra cost.

What it means for players

Connect your DUPR account in one tap with DUPR login. Your rating shows on your PickleMap profile and updates after rated games.

You can find rated sessions and events near you and book them alongside your usual club nights. Sessions a club doesn’t mark as rated stay off DUPR, so a casual hit with friends won’t touch your number.

Every rated session adds to your match history, and more matches give DUPR more data to work with.

Why this partnership matters

“Clubs are where most pickleball is played, and organisers shouldn’t need spreadsheets to run them. We built PickleMap to take the admin off their plate. With DUPR built in, a club can make its normal sessions rated in a couple of taps, and players see their rating move without extra work for anyone,”  

Ali Al-Hashmi, Co-founder of PickleMap.

“The UK club scene is growing fast, and clubs there want rated play that fits how they already run their nights. PickleMap makes that simple, and every rated session helps UK players build a DUPR rating that reflects how they actually play.”  

Johnnnie Carmichael, DUPR International Director
