Every pickleball player thinks they know their level. PBORS asks the only people who actually do — the ones on the other side of the net. HOW IT WORKS Play a match. Record it in seconds. Then you and your opponents rate each other. Those ratings become your PBOR: a rating built from the judgment of everyone who has actually played you, not from a number you picked for yourself. Ratings from stronger, more established players carry more weight, so your PBOR settles toward the truth as you play more people. You can rate an opponent again after 72 hours, so your view of them can change as they improve — the rating is a living picture, not a one-time verdict. SMART CONNECT Every player gets a personal QR code. Someone scans it at the court and can rate you on the spot — or, if they are new, sign up and be connected to you automatically. No usernames to spell out, no "what was your handle again". LEAGUES THAT ACTUALLY RUN Create a league and PBORS handles the parts that usually fall apart: - Round robin with real rounds, not a jumble of fixtures - Rotating-partner mixers that give everyone a fresh partner each round - Ladder play, where beating the rung above you moves you up - End-of-season playoffs seeded by record, with byes handled properly - Court assignments, standings, disputes and player-reported scoring Add players who are not on PBORS yet by name — they do not need an account for you to run your league. TOURNAMENTS, EVERY FORMAT Single elimination, double elimination with a true grand-final reset, round robin, and pool play that snake-drafts into pools and auto-seeds a bracket from the top finishers. Singles and doubles. Best-of-three finals if you want them. Seed by PBOR or at random. PLAYER DATABASE Search players near you, see their PBOR and record, and find someone at your level who actually wants a game. FREE AND PREMIUM Recording matches and rating opponents is free and unlimited — that is the heart of the app and always will be. Joining competitive leagues and tournaments uses credits, and a Premium membership removes the limit and adds rating trend charts. Premium is managed on the PBORS website. RESPECT Player ratings are visible to the community, so PBORS takes conduct seriously. You can report or block any player, and blocking is enforced both ways — a blocked player cannot find you in search or rate you. Built by a pickleball player in Dallas-Fort Worth who got tired of not knowing what anyone's rating really meant.
