I am a new player and the tournament organizer misspelled my name

  • Contact the tournament organizer and ask them to fix the spelling of your name

  • If the misspelled name has made it to the IFPA website, you should also .

I have changed my name due to gender transition, marriage or divorce

  • Make sure your IFPA profile reflects your name name. You may have to

  • Once your IFPA is updated please email with the following information:

    • Your new name. This is the most important part!

    • A link to your IFPA profile

    • A link to your Match Play profile, if you have one

Name changes like these are done by manually updating multiple systems and it may take a day or two to process.
