Mission Statement
To steward the sport of competitive pinball by empowering volunteers with the resources to host fair, inclusive competitions that unite players of all backgrounds through our official world rankings.
World Pinball Player Rankings
The IFPA has created the World Pinball Player Rankings (WPPR) to establish the first official rankings system of pinball players throughout the world. Through these sanctioned tournaments and leagues, the IFPA crowns the World’s Greatest Pinball Player at the end of each calendar year and organizes championships at State, National and International levels. Participating in IFPA sanctioned tournaments will give players a chance to increase their WPPR rankings.
History
Some operators and players may remember the original IFPA from the early 1990s. Utilizing the support from the AMOA, manufacturers and operators, the original IFPA promoted pinball playing through tournament and league play. It hosted four world class pinball competitions and helped promote over 30 pinball leagues before becoming inactive in 1995.
The new IFPA begins life as an organization eager to provide assistance, direction and proven methodologies to ensure the success of competitive pinball. Welcome to the IFPA.
