Finals Format

Overall

The Texas Pinball League (TPL) was established to promote the growth and prestige of Texas pinball by 1) creating intra-region competition, 2) fostering inter-region cohesion, and 3) increasing the state’s WPPR revenue. The TPL will unite the leagues in Austin, Dallas and Houston, to create a massive, Texas-sized pinball showdown and party at Finals.

General Overview: Each major region of Texas will host a qualifying event, each following the same format. The top 4 players from each event will be advanced to the finals. The finalists from each region and 4 wild card players will converge in a single city to represent their region in the finals. Finals will be scheduled to coordinate with the three major Texas events (Texas Pinball Festival, Houston Arcade Expo, Bat City Open) to reduce travel burdens. The winner will be immortalized on the TPL cup (Formerly the Pinbot Cup), and will possess the cup until the next TPL season.
