Tournament Overview


Start Date: July 12, 2017
End Date: September 06, 2017

The Grand Rapids Pinball League was started in November 2012 by Rodney Minch to provide an opportunity for individuals to play competitive pinball in a fun and laid back environment. The league is open to anyone who has an interest in playing pinball and all skill levels are welcome! If you are interested in joining the pinball league or have any questions, please check out the Grand Rapids Pinball League page on Facebook. our website at http://www.grpl.info or email us at grpinball@gmail.com.

A season has 5 league nights for 3 consecutive months. League nights are the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of each month. League nights take place at Pyramid Scheme Bar which is located at 68 Commerce Ave SW in Grand Rapids, Michigan. League matches start promptly at 7pm and typically run about 1.5 hours. Players are welcome and encouraged to come early and/or stay later to practice and socialize.

We use the match play system for player groups with a point system of 7/5/3/1 (7/4/1 for 3 player groups). Every league night, each group will play 5 different pinball machines. Each person in a group gets to pick at least one machine to play. The 5th machine played in the group will be determined by whoever scored the most points in their group. If one or more players are tied for points, the person who had the most 1st place finishes in their group that night wins. If still tied, then whoever had the most 2nd place finishes, then 3rd, then 4th. If there is still a tie, then flip a coin to determine the winner.

Total points earned during the system determines your ranking after the last league night. Players who miss 1 night will receive 50% of their average score during the season for that missed night. Pre-playing and subs are not allowed.

Hope to see you there!
