Competitive pinball around the Sacramento region
Bringing Power to the Pinball since 2011.
The Capitol Corridor Pinball League (CCPL) was formed in 2011 to give pinball enthusiasts between the Bay Area and the Sierras a chance to participate in competitive pinball events. From its humble beginnings in Vacaville, it quickly expanded to Fairfield in 2012 with a new section forming in Folsom in 2013. The latest section in Lodi has been a success since 2015.
With the help of local individuals who are willing to share their machines with other pinball enthusiasts, regular meetings are currently being held on Thursdays.
The league is IFPA-sanctioned and WPPR points are awarded to all participants who participate in at least 50% of the league meetings. There are 6 meetings per season and 4 seasons per year for each league section.
If you are interested in participating in a league, in hosting a meeting, or in starting a section, please .
League nights are held bi-weekly in Folsom on Thursday evenings and bi-weekly in Lodi on Thursday evenings. Playoffs are generally held on the Saturday afternoon following the last regular season meeting. Please check the calendars for meeting dates.
There are currently two CCPL sections, CCPL-Folsom that meets primarily in Folsom and CCPL-Lodi that meets primarily in Lodi. League meetings are held in the private homes of pinball enthusiasts, so location information is only made available to league members, following a vetting or referral process. If you are interested in joining CCPL, please to begin the process.
On a league night you'll play four machines, picked to spread across as many eras as we can manage, so expect anything from an electro-mechanical up to something modern. Groups are three or four players, one game each, and your score on every machine gets compared against everyone else who played that night. The more people you beat, the more points you take home.
Six nights make up a season and the standings come straight off those totals. Then it finishes with playoffs. The top bracket needs you at half the meetings or better, but there's a second bracket open to anyone who came out at all.
