Levelling

LEVEL UP YOUR GAME

BOOKING A SPOT

There are 4 spots in total assigned to each coach. Once your spot has been booked, a coach will assess each player on the court individually based on play, technique and game knowledge.
A minimum of THREE players are required for a levelling session. If there are THREE players, then the coach assigned will play as the fourth.

LEVELLING PROGRESSION

The level can suffer ups and downs depending on the uploaded results, but is mostly affected by the player’s reliability.

Lower reliability = more changes
Higher reliability = less changes

These are the official levels used in Playtomic and how they scale. Learn more about what each level description is and how to level up your gameplay.
