Swipe to refresh leaderboard

Our mobile game has a leaderboard widget with names and scores:

This is a scrollable list with 50 to 100 elements in it, sorted by score. One entry is for the current user, others are for his opponents. Scores may change in the real time - every user has a chance to play the game as much as they like, and their best score is recorded.

We do not want to implement live updates in this widget, as this does not make much sense for our application (and this data does not change that often, maybe one change every 10 minutes).

Is swipe to refresh a good solution here? I have concerns about it, because it requires the user to scroll all the way to the top and not really intuitive in my opinion.
