Pickleball Skill Level Self-Assessment: Assessing your skill level will help you find games with other people of similar skills, identify personal strength and challenge areas for growth & improvement, and will give you a skill level number (i.e. 2.5 or 3.0 etc) that you can use to enter tournaments and other competitive and special pickleball events.

Pickleball Canada has developed an easy to complete Self-Assessment Skill Rating Chart for skill levels 2.0. 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0. that’s available HERE. Complete this assessment periodically as your pickleball skills may improve over time and with experience; giving you a different skill ranking than you previously held.
