Player Rankings
This part of the League Management System is for larger Leagues who offer Divisional Play based on skill level. There is provision for up to 4 skill levels.
A League could use these Player Rankings in any way they wished to set Team Restictions for each Division.
A sample is shown below of their full use in practice.
1. What Player Rankings Are There?
Based on League Play:
AA....Master
A......Open
B......Intermediate
C......Rec
Based on CCS/ACS/VNEA/BCAPL Championship Play:
AAA..Vegas Master
At the end of each League Year, Players are assigned and keep the last and highest Ranking achieved.
2. What Are They Used For?
To ensure that every Team in every Division has a fair chance in competing against the others.
There are Team Restrictions for each Division of the Winter Session as to the Rankings of the Players that a Team can use in any Round of a Match:
AA....Masters Division..........No Restriction
A1....Open Division..............Max 2 AA Master Players
A2....Open Division..............No AAA Vegas Master or AA Master Players allowed
B......Intermediate................Max 1 A Open Player
C......Rec...............................Max1 B Intermediate Player
L......Ladies Open.................No Restriction
The League also has a Singles Tournament for all the Players in the Winter Session that is based on Player Rankings - a different Group for each.
3. What Are They Based On?
All those who have played a minimum of 8 full Matches in a previous Winter Session will be assigned a Player Ranking based on a composite of the following Performance Indicators:
Points Average..Total Points Scored divided by Games Played
Win %................Games Won divided by Games Played
Runout %....... .Runouts divided by Games Played
The Games Played exclude the 'N - No Shot' Games in which you never got a shot after the break.
Benchmarks are set for each Performance Indicator for each Division to achieve the following overall mix of Players:
AA....Masters.........................10%
A......Open..............................20%
B......Intermediate.................30%
C......Rec.................................40%
If a Player does not have a previous Ranking, they will be assigned a Provisional Ranking that matches the Division that they play in.
The League Executive has the right to revise a Ranking based on 'KA' - Known Ability.
