Our Weekly Schedule of Pinball
Tap an event below for full details, pricing, and rules.
Our flagship events — the Monday and Tuesday Night IFPA Singles League — put you up against three other players each week.
Duration & Format
Each season runs 6 weeks, plus a finals week. You're grouped with 3 other players, and your best 5 of 6 weeks count toward your final score.
Scoring
| 1st Place | 5 points |
| 2nd Place | 3 points |
| 3rd Place | 2 points |
| 4th Place | 1 point |
Games Per Night
Each league night consists of 6 games — plenty of chances to earn points even if one game goes badly.
Finals
The top 8–16 players make the finals. Ties are broken with a sudden-death match on a randomly selected machine.
Teams of three face off every other Thursday in a mix of formats that test both individual skill and teamwork.
Format
- Single Ball Showdown — each teammate takes a turn playing one ball solo.
- One Flipper Each — your whole team shares one machine, one flipper each, on a three-ball game.
- Head-to-Head — 1v1 matches against an opposing player.
Scoring
1 point per game won. No points for a loss — just a chance to regroup for the next one.
On Thursdays without Team League, we run Flip Frenzy — fast, high-energy head-to-head matches across multiple machines at once. Play as many matches as you can in the time limit; your net win-loss record decides your placing.
The relaxed end to the week — no competition, no sign-up, just casual pinball and good company. All skill levels welcome; come learn the ropes or just unwind on your favourite machines.
Pricing
| Standard entry | $30 |
| After 7:30pm | $25 |
| Couples | $50 |
| Family (2 adults + 2 kids, or 1 adult + 3 kids) | $60 |
Our flagship IFPA-sanctioned group match play event — a well-organized, structured tournament that's become a highlight for competitive players across the region.
Entry & Prizes
Entry is $31, with $1 from every player going to the IFPA to support your world ranking points. The prize pool grows with turnout.
Format
Seeding and first-round pairing are random; later rounds use balanced pairing based on performance. Arena assignment is balanced across banks.
| 4-player groups | IFPA scoring 7 / 5 / 3 / 1 |
| 3-player groups | IFPA scoring 7 / 4 / 1 |
Qualifying
8 rounds of 2 games each (16 games total), played in group match-play format. Ties are broken with a single-game playoff on a randomly selected machine.
Finals
The cutoff and bracket shape depend on turnout:
More than 24 players — top 12 advance (top 4 get a first-round bye)
| Stage | Group | Seeds |
|---|---|---|
| Quarterfinals | Q1 | 5, 8, 9, 12 |
| Q2 | 6, 7, 10, 11 | |
| Semifinals | S1 | 1, 4 + top 2 from Q1 |
| S2 | 2, 3 + top 2 from Q2 |
Top 2 from each semifinal group advance to the final.
24 players or fewer — top 8 advance, no byes
| Stage | Group | Seeds |
|---|---|---|
| Semifinals | S1 | 1, 4, 5, 8 |
| S2 | 2, 3, 6, 7 |
Top 2 from each semifinal group advance to the final. Finals run on Match Play software.
Game Selection & Banning
- Quarterfinals: the top 2 seeds in each group may pick games, but can't ban any.
- Semifinals: the top 2 seeds may pick or ban games (max 2 bans per group). Once a game is picked or banned it's unavailable for the rest of the event — if banned, the next-highest seed gets the pick.
Tiebreakers
Any tie during finals progression is broken with a sudden-death match on a randomly selected machine.
Final Standings
Standings are based on the round a player is eliminated in. Players eliminated in the same round are ranked against each other using their Matchplay points from that round only — scores don't carry over between rounds. Finalists are ranked on their Matchplay scores in the final itself.
Held on the 4th Sunday of each month, Iron Maidens is our IFPA-ranked event for female and female-identifying players — a chance to compete, connect, and be part of the growing women's pinball community. Entry is $26.
Doors open at 12pm, with the competition starting at 1pm.
