Season 14 is upon us!
Welcome to the Chicago Chapter of Belles & Chimes! We are an IFPA sanctioned women's pinball league that usually plays every other Wednesday night at Logan Arcade, 2408 W Fullerton, Chicago. All skill levels welcome!
We use an inclusive definition of “woman” and “female” and we welcome trans women, genderqueer women, and non-binary people.
**Due to high demand, we are capping the league at 70 players.
Prior to each league play, a sign up link will be sent via email so you can register on matchplay.com. Play will start promptly at 7:30 pm. Players will play 2 rounds of matchplay, 3 games per round. League takes your top 5 scores of the season and drops your 2 lowest scores.
Top 12 finishers will qualify for the A-Division final to determine final standings of the league. Those qualifying lower than top 12 will qualify for the optional B-Division final for prizes. A division and B division finals will be held on separate days, and will start at 7:00pm rather than 7:30pm. You must attend at least 4 league nights to participate in the finals and to receive IFPA points for your final standing.
