The Wildcard.
Don't have a home club, or your club isn't competing this season? You shouldn't have to sit on the sidelines. Join the Wildcard Pool — captains browse by availability and DUPR rating, and invite you to compete on their roster.
From signup to court in four steps.
Create a free profile
Set up your Klyng Cup account, link your DUPR rating, and set "Wildcard" as your primary club affiliation.
Indicate your availability
Tell us which upcoming tournament stops you’re available for. Captains search the pool by date, region, and DUPR rating.
Get drafted by a captain
A captain who needs players will invite you to join their roster. Accept, and you’re in. Decline, and you stay in the pool for the next event.
Compete and climb
Play in real sanctioned matches. Earn team points for your wildcard club. Build your DUPR rating alongside club players. Some wildcards become captains. Some captains were wildcards first.

The Wildcard Pool exists for anyone who wants to compete but doesn't have a team.

Looking to level up
You want sanctioned match experience against strong competition. DUPR-rated games. Real stakes.
