What is the Pinball Gridiron League?
The Pinball Gridiron League is a competitive, season-long battle where home-field advantage matters. When you’re “home,” you choose player order and win any exact-score ties. Each week, you’ll play four matches — two at your stadium and two at your opponent’s — with the top eight advancing to the playoffs.
Example Matchup:
Jeremy’s home stadium = Iron Maiden
Courtney’s home stadium = Jurassic Park
When Jeremy hosts Courtney, they play Iron Maiden with Jeremy’s home advantage. Later in the season, they meet again on Jurassic Park under Courtney’s advantage.
How It Works
$40 Entry Fee (pays top 4, plus $1 IFPA fee)
8 Weeks of League Play (~2 hours each)
4 Matches Per Night (2 home + 2 away)
Top 8 Players advance to best-of-3 playoffs (1–2 extra weeks)
Fully IFPA sanctioned at the highest points rating
Missed matches count as a loss to keep standings fair
Trophies for top finishers
