Team Rating
If you are a beginner and your team are all beginners your rating would be around 2.0-2.5. But to make it easier for you just put beginners and we will form a round robin for beginners. You will play players at your level.
For intermediate and advanced players we take the top rating for the top two males and females.
Therefore if the top two men are 4.5 and 4.0 and the females are 4.0 and 3.5. We would add that up and divide by four. This would be 16 so your team rating is 4.0
Teams
You must have two men and 2 female as a minimum but you may have up to 10 people per team. This is an excellent team building event. During each set you may make one substitution.
