What is a club rating?

JUPR is an in-house club rating used to create better matchups, seed events, and keep leveled play fair. It is displayed on a 1.000–7.000 scale and is not intended to be a national or universal rating.

How do I get a rating?

You get a rating after your first club-approved rated match. The same calculation rules apply from day one—there is no provisional period or special new-player multiplier.

What matches count?

Ladders, round robins, league matches, and tournaments can count when club staff mark the results as rated. Open play, drills, clinics, and social play do not count unless the club marks them as rated.

What affects rating movement?

Movement depends on the two teams’ ratings before the match and the final score. It does not use recency, reliability, or a changing new-player factor. A close loss to a stronger team can move differently than a one-sided expected win.

Can my rating go up after a loss?

Yes. If you perform better than expected against a stronger team, your rating can still increase after a loss.

Can my rating go down after a win?

No. A win is rewarded, though a win that is far below expectation may result in only minimal movement.

How does the system work for doubles?

The system compares the average rating of each two-player team. After the result, both partners receive the same rating change based on the matchup and score.

What is the difference between overall and league ratings?

Your overall rating reflects rated matches across the club. A league rating reflects only matches from that league or series.

What if a score was entered wrong?

Report the issue to the organizer or use the data-correction page. Staff will review your request before making any changes, so submitting it does not change your rating immediately.

How should I use my JUPR rating?

Use it to choose leveled sessions, seed ladders and tournaments fairly, follow progress, and create competitive matches. It reflects your official club results, not a guarantee of any single result.

Why can JUPR differ from DUPR or my bracket level?

JUPR uses official results from this club for in-club programming. DUPR, bracket levels, and other systems may use different matches, rules, and scales, so they are not expected to match.
