How it works:
DC Pinball League season is eight (8) weeks long followed by a one-day Finals.


DC Pinball League (aka the “Parent” League) is composed of three independent sub-leagues:
Thursday Sub-League (7:30 pm)
Sunday Sub-League (7:30 pm)
Monday Sub-League (2:00pm)


The Sub-Leagues will be reported individually. Each Sub-League is treated as its own league for IFPA reporting and WPPR purposes.


Each Sub-League has an entry fee of $20/$10 for new players/no IFPA #. Participants can join as many Sub-Leagues of their choosing (Thursday night, Sunday night, or Monday afternoon).

In each session, players will compete against each other across four (4) games in randomly drawn groups of 2, 3 or 4 players. Points are awarded based on the finishing order of each game.

Players are allowed to play 1 extra ball at each machine. All other extra balls must be plunged and the machine cannot be touched after the plunge. Players will be disqualified for that game if they play more than one extra ball, or if they play another player’s ball.

Scores are 4/3/2/1 for 4-player groups, 4/2.5/1 for 3-player groups, and 4/1 for 2-player groups.



Results and Reporting:
