Ontario Ranking System

Ontario Ranking System

The Ontario Ranking System will track tournament results from sanctioned provincial and national circuit events. 

The ranking system is designed for players, parents, and coaches to:

  • Identify which BON tournament series is most skill appropriate for the player.
  • Determine player eligibility for series tournaments.
  • Measure player progress throughout the tournament season.
  • Gauge player development and success against other players in the province and across the country.  
  • Create a fair system for seeding at BON tournaments.

Badminton Ontario has outlined a ranking formula for use in all provincial rankings. Only results using Tournament Software will be included in the Ontario Rankings. Rankings are available for singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.

Ranking Guidelines

  • Ranking points are the sum of a player’s/pair’s top four results in any discipline (with the same partner, where applicable) over a 52-week period.
  • Ontario Ranking publications will be updated and published weekly on Tournament Software.
  • Players/pairs are awarded ranking points based on where they finish in a draw.
  • The amount of points awarded are dependent on each tournament series (i.e. national events award more points than provincial events).
  • Each player/pair must win at least one match in a draw to gain points. Walkovers do not count as a win for ranking points. 
  • Players entering into the consolation draw will be awarded half the ranking points earned in the main draw. 
  • Players competing in a Round Robin draw will be awarded 75% of the ranking points earned in the main draw.
  • At the start of a season, players who remain in the same age category will maintain their existing ranking points for the first tournament.
  • At the start of the season, players moving up into a new age category will carry forward 50% of their existing ranking points for the first tournament.
  • If a player obtains points in multiple age categories, the Tournament Director will use the most up-to-date points for the age category in which the player has registered for that particular tournament.
