Welcome to MasterLeague! It's now easier than ever to join.
Simply use the button above to sign up on the Global Pickleball Network (GPN) website. You will be prompted to complete any additional requirements when signing up to individual events (fixtures).
You may register and play as many or as few fixtures as you like. For rotating-partner doubles, you will be allocated a starting court each time based on your skill rating (rather than ladder position) so that you are in a group of 4-7 similar players, where you will rotate partners and add the aggregate number of points you have won for the round. The players with the highest and lowest total on each court then move to the next higher or lower court, if there is one, for the second round of the day.
We use a custom points formula to award ladder points based on points won, player skill ratings, and win/loss record. This does not punish players who can only play occasionally, while providing an opportunity for those who have a high win/loss differential to stretch their points a higher in recognition of their track record.
Note: you can save $5 on any ladder by joining the MasterLeague network on GPN before you register for the ladder.

Join the 2026 Pickleball MasterLeague league on GPN. You can select one or more ladders (e.g., Q1 rotating-partner doubles, or 2025 singles) from the available list while signing up, or add them later.
Register for relevant events (fixtures) displayed on the MasterLeague network or under each ladder, or arrange your own singles challenges at your convenience.
TIP: If you find you are inelligible / unable to register for an event, check that you have connected your DUPR account to your GPN account, and joined the 2026 league as well as the relevant doubles ladder of which the event is a part.
