The league is split into two divisions, with tournaments running everyday at the times listed below. You’ll be playing for points each time you play, and those with the most points at the end of every month win prizes as listed below. Keep track of where you stand on the league by checking out the UKIPT League Rankings page.

|---|---|---|
| Division 2 | Free | 19:00 local time (14:00 ET) |
