Roster Rating Standard Appeal

Natalie would like to appeal her 3.12 rating to play 3.5

She played six matches last season. 2 at 3.5 and 4 at 3.0
She started 3.0 and ended at 3.12. In 2024 she started at 3.2 and went to 3.0. No history of her rating increasing.

In 3.0 she won 6 games and lost 12. She scored a total of 120 points while 166 were scored by her opponents.
In 3.5 she won 7 games and lost 5 with her total points bing 105 and the opponents being 106.

She started the 2024 season at 3.2 and ended at 3.0 and then inn 2025 she started at 3.0 and never got any higher than 3.12 with much of the season being lower than 3.0.

Her stats kind of give mixed signals but I feel like over a two year period her rating has been flat making me believe that she needs another year at 3.0.

I recommend denial

• APPL history of results does not support the Appeal

Last season, my team’s captain employed a strategy of pairing the weakest player with the strongest, which unfortunately impacted my overall record on the 3.0 team and did not accurately reflect my level of play. In addition to competing at 3.0, I also played on the 3.5 team, where I secured several wins and consistently held my own against strong 3.5-level opponents.

Beyond league play, my current DUPR rating from tournament performance reflects a higher level of skill than my current APPL rating suggests. Considering my demonstrated competitiveness at the 3.5 level and verified results from tournament play, I believe a higher APPL rating would more accurately represent my current ability and level of competition.

• 3.5
