Special Events
Beyond the Regular Meetups
Beyond our regular fortnightly meetups, TAPP hosts state finals and participates in the Australian Championship Series (ACS). We also occasionally organise mid-season big bashes and one-off special events to keep the competitive pinball scene exciting throughout the year.
Qualifying for Elite Competitions
Points are accumulated through IFPA-endorsed events, including our fortnightly meetups and other qualifying competitions. Your performance across these events determines your eligibility for higher-level tournaments and finals.
Key Events & Opportunities
Mid-Season & Special Events
Throughout the season, TAPP may host special one-off tournaments and mid-season events. These provide additional competitive opportunities and a chance to earn extra ranking points.
State Finals
Players earn points throughout the season via regular events. The top-ranked players are then invited to compete in the State Finals, typically held early the following year.
Australian Championship Series
Top players from each state are invited to represent their region at the national ACS event — the pinnacle of competitive pinball in Australia.
IFPA World Championship
Through IFPA world ranking points earned at endorsed events, players can qualify for the IFPA World Pinball Championship — the ultimate international competition.
