Rating system

Our club uses an implementation of the ELO rating system for our club internal ratings. Each player starts at 1600 points when they enter the system and gain or lose points based on their own and their opponents rating, as well as the result of the match (2-1, for example).

Ratings are not reset at the end of each semester. Rather, only active players are listed in the ladder; non-active players (that is, players who have not played in the current semester) are removed, yet they do not lose their rating score. If they return at a later point, they will once again be listed in the ladder with their last recorded rating.

Current ladder

All players who have ever participated in rated play are listed in our complete, “historic” ladder; here, no player has been removed:
