IFPA’s World Pinball Player Rankings reaches 10,000 players ranked!

Posted By Josh Sharpe, on June 24, 2011

In April 2006, the IFPA attempted a fun experiment to try and rank the world’s greatest pinball players. A little over five years later, and the World Pinball Player Rankings has truly become a phenomenon within the competitive pinball community. We’re pleased to announce the goal we set of having 10,000 players ranked by the end of 2011 has just been reached. With these players coming from 30 different countries, competitive pinball truly is a global sport that only continues to grow at a rapid pace.

We’ve also seen incredible growth in the number of tournaments popping up all over the world. We’re uploading nearly 40 tournament results a month, which is about 3 times the amount of tournaments we were uploading during the first year of the WPPR system.

The IFPA wishes to thank everyone in the competitive pinball community for continuing to support everything we do to spread the world about our incredible sport to the masses.

    Keep up the good work. Pinball is an exciting sport to watch and a great hobby. We need a TV station to broadcast one of the major events. If that ever happens the growth in membership will be huge!
