The Fizzy’s Silver Orb League (SOL) is a bi-weekly pinball league run as a series of six IFPA-sanctioned tournaments with a holiday break for Christmas and New Year’s Day.
Each league night is a standalone tournament, with players earning Season Points based on their finishing position.
The top players after six tournaments qualify for a Season Finals Championship Night.
Players do not need to attend every event to qualify, but attending more events increases their chance of making the Finals.
Each league night consists of five rounds of group match play in 3- or 4-player groups.
| Group size | Points by finish |
|---|---|
| 4 players | 7 – 5 – 3 – 1 |
| 3 players | 7 – 4 – 1 |
Groups are assigned each round using a balanced match-play pairing system.
Final standings for the night are determined by total points across all five rounds, with ties broken by head-to-head results or a one-game tiebreaker if necessary.
After each event, players earn Season Points based on their finishing position:
| Finish | Season points |
|---|---|
| 1st | 100 |
| 2nd | 95 |
| 3rd | 90 |
| 4th | 85 |
| 5th | 80 |
| And so on | Decreasing by 5 |
Only each player's best 4 results out of 6 are counted toward Finals qualification, allowing for missed weeks.
You don't need a ranking, a pinball machine at home, or previous tournament experience. Come to Fizzy's before 8 PM on a league Friday, pay regular admission, and we'll explain the format.
