Downtown Pinball League Info
Congrats to our season 31 winners with Kyle and Hillary taking main & consolation respectively! Season 32 began on March 13th but it’s not too late to sign up. If you’d like to get together with a bunch of other pinball enthusiasts at Mission Control, a great pinball location in Santa Ana, Orange County, CA, click Join the League in the main menu, submit the form and we’ll get you going for the season. Dues are $20 for the entire 6 weeks and this covers IFPA fees, a prize pool and some minor expenses. If you have any questions about the league or location (Mission Control) please contact us.
League Format
The league format will be 6 games of match play pinball each night. You’ll be placed into 4 (or possibly 3) player groups and the result of each game will award points (7,5,3,1 for 1st through 4th respectively) which will accumulate through the night for a meeting total. Players may miss up to two of the 6 meetings, take a zero score for those meetings, and drop those scores from the results. Players who play 5 or 6 meetings will have the opportunity to drop their two lowest played meeting totals. Players who play in fewer than 3 meetings will not be included in the final results. Finals for the top qualifiers will be the same format but 3 games per round with 4,2,1,0 scoring. Anyone that doesn’t qualify in the top 8, has paid dues for the season and made at least 2 meetings, is eligible for the strikes consolation tournament on finals night. There are always payouts, a trophy and occasionally prizes for the consolation event so it’s worth attending!

League Shop
We’re working on getting a league shop together so that you can order shirts (and hopefully some other stuff too) directly from the printer, without us having to front the cash for a large run and manage getting all the sizing right.
League Finances
For anyone interested in seeing the breakdown of dues, expenses and payouts, here’s the spreadsheet that I’m using to track the costs.
