DUPR this week announced a new feature called DUPR Reset that was created for pickleball players who want a way to reassess their rating using recent match results.
The initiative is a structured performance review based entirely on the most recent results.
For players who believe their level has improved or outdated results are holding their DUPR back, they can prove it during the upcoming Reset Period, which is March 16-May 17.
The DUPR Reset is completely optional and completely risk-free. After the Reset Period ends, a player’s DUPR is set to whichever is higher -- their Reset rating or their original rating. Nothing is lost by participating.
DUPR Reset details
- Players must complete a minimum of 8 matches with at least 2 different partners (for doubles) or 8 matches against at least 2 different opponents (for singles).
- There is no maximum number of matches or partners.
- If the minimum requirements are not met, the player’s rating reverts to their original rating.
- All match results are eligible to count toward the Reset rating and minimum requirements except self-reported matches.
- Self-reported matches are excluded from the Reset entirely.
How it works
- The DUPR Reset allows players to update their rating using only matches played during the Reset Period, with no downside.
- Only matches played during the Reset Period are used to calculate the Reset rating.
- Matches played outside the Reset Period will continue to update a player’s DUPR rating normally.
- A player’s DUPR rating will continue to update as usual during the Reset Period as new match results are entered.
- All Reset Period matches must be submitted by May 20, 2026. Matches submitted after this date will not be included in the Reset.
- Once all Reset matches are processed, a player’s DUPR rating will reflect the higher of: their Reset rating, or their original rating
- If the Reset does not result in a higher rating, the player’s original rating is kept. There is no scenario where a rating goes down due to Reset.
- For players who registered before March 16, 2026, the original rating is their rating as of the end of day on March 15, 2026.
- For players who registered on or after March 16, 2026, the original rating is their rating as of the end of day on their registration date.
Registration details
Cost: $34.99 per player (all sales are final).
- Players may choose to register or not. Opting in is entirely up to the player.
- Players may register ahead of the Reset Period, allowing their Reset window to begin on the official start date.
- Players may also register after the Reset Period has started. In that case, their Reset window begins the day after they register.
- Regardless of when a player registers, the Reset window always ends on the official Reset Period end date.
- The date a player registers is considered their registration date.
