“Our pickleball nights got way more interesting once we started tracking FUPR. The trash talk is elite.” – George
How RallyRank Works
Three mini steps:
1. Create your crew
Invite your friends, regular partners, or weekly game-night group. RallyRank is built around real-life crews — not random opponents. Your people. Your games. Your history.
2. Log your matches
Enter who played, the teams, and the final score. That’s it. Singles or doubles. Casual rallies or sweaty battles.
Every game adds to your shared story.
3. Watch your story grow
Track streaks, rematches, upsets, and improvement over time. Stats update automatically in the background — so you can focus on the fun. The more you play, the more your crew’s legacy unfolds.
“We don’t even say ‘good game’ anymore. We just ask, ‘What’s your FUPR now?’ It’s becoming a problem.” – Kin
What is FUPR?
FUPR stands for Friends’ Unofficial Pickleball Rating. It shows how your game is trending with the people you actually play with, without feeling like a tournament scorecard. Think of it as DUPR’s friendly cousin—easy to use, fun to check, and gentle on off days.
FUPR looks at who you played, how strong they are, and how close the score was. Beating stronger players boosts your rating more, beating lower players moves it a little, and losing to stronger players barely affects you. Close games cause small changes, while bigger wins or losses shift things a bit more—but always softer than a serious competitive system.
Why RallyRank is More Than a Rating App
Because pickleball isn’t just about winning. It’s about:
The long rally you still talk about
The comeback nobody saw coming
The rematch you’re already planning
RallyRank turns those moments into something you can track, revisit, and build on. Streaks form. Rivalries grow. Progress becomes visible.
The rating runs quietly in the background. The fun is front and center.

The Simple, Player-Friendly Formula (For the geeky types)
This is the “explanation level” formula (not the full math)!
New FUPR = Old FUPR
+ Match Weight × (Actual Performance – Expected Performance)
Where:
Expected Performance = based on the rating difference
Actual Performance = based on whether you won and by how much
Match Weight = small early on, smaller later
In plain language:
“Your FUPR changes based on how well you played compared to how well you were expected to play.”
“I only downloaded RallyRank for fun. Now I’m calculating matchups like a Wall Street analyst.” – Terry
