Roster Rating Standard Appeal

Ed is requesting to appeal from 3.45 to 3.5

Ed began the season at a 3.19 and continued to improve throughout the season ending up at 3.45. He played mixed and a merged division with open age players as his opponents. He was generally one of the higher rated players on the court often playing with 2.8 and less players and still winning enough for his index to steadily increase.

I feel that he is on a good trajectory and that his game continues to improve. He will do well to play in a harder division to see how he fairs.

I recommend approval of his appeal

I have played in the APPL State Championships the past 2 years on a 3.0 Mixed Team. My APPL rating ended up as a 3.45 and I feel that I can compete at the 3.5 level. I beat some of the 3.0 players at State that are now rated 3.5. I would like to play on a 3.5 Mixed Team this year and there are three 3.0 players that will most likely be on the team.
