Roster Rating Standard Appeal

appeal is not warranted. Lost 13 games, won one.

HOWEVER she would qualify for the new 65+ rule if she actually plays on a 65+ team.

how should this be handled

• APPL history of results does not support the Appeal

qualifies as a fast track appeal

Jean played in a mixed division with 4.0 50+ and 4.0 18+ players. Our division was the only one where the 18+ were counted against us. All other divisions they were thrown out and not counted. Many of the 18+ players by the time she played against her had reached rating of 4.58, 4.6.

If you take the 18+ match off it raises her back up to a 3.89 she would have qualified for a fast track appeal.

She did not play in 2024 so there is no recent information outside this year to consider. Did not win a single game in the three matches. The other two matches were against the state champion 4.0 50+ women. We had a tough league.

I recommend she be allowed to play 4.0

W 7, L 17 in 2025 season
APPL Index declined last 2 seasons

DUPR presented has only 4 games and 1% reliability

• APPL history of results does not support the Appeal

• Player is already at the desired Roster Rating

Dahlia at 3.0 with her rating being set at 3.2 as a new appl player.

She had 12 wins and 12 losses 5 appl pts earned and 3 allowed. Her ending rating was a 3.25

She is under 65 so no auto approval.

While she says her coach says she should play up, her appl numbers do not warrant an appeal up. There is no data to suggest she is ready for 3.5

Should be Fast Track

APPROVE

Helen has not played outside of the White Mountain APPL leagues since 2022. Her ending rating in 2022 was a 3.52.

Since we cannot use White Mountain ratings and I have no access to anything other than the southern region I am unable to look anything up.

With that being said, Helen has applied on a medical appeal. PER HELEN In March of 2025 I was diagnosed with Acanthamoeba Keratitis and as a result of the infection I am currently blind in my left eye. I have been unable to play pickleball at all for almost 6 months. I was on a team up in the White Mountains this summer but because of the pain, doctor's appointments in Tucson, and the inability to play at a competitive level with my team I did not participate.

I am just getting back on the courts and doing the best I can with one eye. I am hoping to have a cornea transplant once they eye tissue is healthy enough, but even then, it is uncertain if I will have my sight back.

Since she did not play at. all this season and. her APPl rating from the Southern Region is stale, I would like to have her approved either as a self-rated player or allow her appeal to the 3.0 level being only .02 above 4 years ago. She is blind in one eye which would make depth perception almost impossible.

I ask that she be approved.

Played in multi-level teams this year. 4.0/4.5 18, 50, 65 mixed
50, 65 mens
In mixed he won 21 games and lost 16. He scored 16 appl points in those 16 losses and allowed 11 in the 21 wins.
in mens he won 13 and lost 11 scoring 7 appl points in the 11 losses and allowing 7 appl points in the 13 wins.

he basically pretty much split everything on both teams. He did better within the mixed, he played regularly with his wife.

In his mixed matches he jumped .09 in the first three games. then he dropped down .01 in next two and back up 1.12 in the third one.

in mens he dropped .01, then went back up 1.01 and then down. .01 and then back up 1.12.

While he says he 'didn't win anything' in tournaments he regularly took silver and one bronze. That means he made it to the medal rounds. This was in 4.0. these were in 21-23

His dupr is currently 4.475 and stale since 2023. At one time his dupr got as high as 4.771 in 23.

He may not have competed in the last couple of years but he played 61 games last year which definitely gives a picture of what he is capable of even though he says 60 is not enough to give him an index.

He will end up playing in the same league next year as he did this year with combined 4.0 and 4.5. I think he will do well and should be a 4.5
