Stern Pro Circuit Tees Off at the 2023 IFPA Pin-Masters: World Pin-Golf Championships


Stern Pinball, Inc. is proud to announce the third Pro Circuit tournament of the 2023 competitive season. The IFPA Pin-Masters tournament is coming to District 82 Pinball in De Pere, WI on March 10-12, 2023. This golf-themed tournament will have players competing across 18 games (Pin-Holes) spanning all eras (electro-mechanical through the latest Stern Pinball games) all hoping to improve their rankings to qualify for the Stern Pro Circuit Championship.

In its third season, Stern Pinball continues its partnership with the International Flipper Pinball Association (IFPA) in producing the premiere competitive pinball circuit in the world. The Stern Pro Circuit is a series of 20 high-level pinball tournaments held throughout the season culminating in the pinnacle event, the Stern Pro Circuit Championship featuring the top 32 ranked players.

The IFPA Pin-Masters is a pinball tradition unlike any other! 144 competitors will tee-off at one of two tee times and complete in two rounds of 9 Pin-Holes during qualifying. Each Pin-Hole will consist of a pinball machine with a target score. The number of balls it takes for the player to reach that target score will represent the number of Pin-Strokes earned for that hole. If a player does not reach the target score after a full game is completed, a stroke value will be determined based on how close the player comes to the target score at the end of their game. The 24 players with the lowest Pin-Stroke total after their two qualifying rounds will advance to the Final Round consisting of a four-player group, with 4 games per round using the same golf scoring.

"The IFPA Pin-Masters tournament is a unique and fun stop on the Stern Pro Circuit," said Seth Davis, President and CEO of Stern Pinball, Inc. "We're anticipating a fun weekend of competitive pinball and golf claps at this highly anticipated annual tournament. At Stern Pinball we love supporting the fun and infectious spirit of the pinball community and of course our competitive players."
