IFPA launches new tournament calendar!

UntitledThe IFPA is excited to announce we've completely redesigned our tournament calendar to make it easier for players to find IFPA endorsed events near them. We have also moved the IFPA Leagues module to this area to help players find and join leagues that may be near them.

The new IFPA calendar also has an updated process for tournament directors to submit their event to be added to the calendar. You will notice that no organizer will be allowed to select a date that isn't at least 30 days in the future. We are also requiring a full address where the tournament will be held, as well as website with details of the format. You will also notice an additional field asking for an email address of the person that will be submitting results. This is because tournament directors will no longer be submitting results via email to the IFPA, but will be responsible for submitting them directly through the IFPA website (coming soon!).

We also have some big things planned for the launch of the 2015 season, including the biggest changes we've ever made to the WPPR system since 2009. Stay tuned for those details later in the year.

Any questions/comments, please contact the IFPA.

    Hey…where did the Twisted Flippers pinball league go? We’re not listed anymore.

    Greg,

    Seems a profile was never created for it.  I just added one and it’s on the list now. The original email was from Neo, so he was added as the contact person. If that is not correct, please shoot us an update.

    @Dirk Elzholz

    It’s there now. It was actually in error as we were missing some information regarding it and it needed re-approved.

    can we have a section to add time to the format

    There is a “Tournament Details” section dedicated for additional information about the format of the event, schedule, etc, that organizers are encouraged to fill in.
