5 Self Rating What is a self-rating? A self-rating is an entry rating level determined by the new player based on questions asked in the TennisLink registration process. Players with lapsed ratings will be given their most recent computer rating at the end of the selfrating process. All players must enter league tennis with a valid computer rating or self -rate using TennisLink. Players should register and self-rate themselves. If someone else registers/self-rates the player, they must know the players tennis history and other pertinent information in detail: **College and High School specifics and other competitive tennis (Club, Park and/or Tournament Play (any type). **Other sport competitive history. **Current plans of player to improve. CAUTION - Withholding pertinent information when self-rating is an EGREGIOUS act and a violation of National Reg. 1.04E(4) (Player Agreement) and can lead to sanctions that may include suspension from USTA League Tennis for the captain, player and team. START THE SELF-RATING PROCESS 1. You can either click on Self-Rate from the Welcome Page or from the registration page where it will prompt you to Self-Rate before completing the registration process. 2. Follow the steps and answer the questions. Based on the answers the system will assign a minimum rating. This may not be your true rating, because the system cannot evaluate your tennis experience. Only you know your true capability. (Review the General & Experienced Player Guidelines on the next page) 3. Pick your rating. **Is the minimum correct? If so, accept it. **Is the minimum too low? If so, pick the rating that is appropriate. **Is the minimum higher than you feel is appropriate? If so, you can IMMEDIATELY APPEAL it by clicking on the Appeal Button. You have the ability to express why you feel a different (lower) rating is warranted. The review of appeals may take 1-3 weeks. 4. Once your appropriate self-rate is accepted, you can start or complete the registration process. 5

Below is the range for all NTRP levels & below = = = = = = 5.5 The NTRP system identifies general levels of ability, but an individual will be rated within those levels at 50 different hundredths of a point. A 3.5 player, for example, can fall anywhere between a 3.01 and a A typical match result for a player with a 3.01 rating versus a 3.49 player, both of whom are 3.5s, would be 6-0,6-0 in favor of the higher rated player. NTRP DYNAMIC DISQUALIFICATION Each NTRP Level is followed by a letter indicating the type of rating. The following identifies who can and cannot be NTRP dynamically disqualified.

20 FAQ 1. What is NTRP? National Tennis Rating Program is a classification system that was developed to identify and describe the general characteristics of thirteen levels of tennis-playing ability. 2. What is a self-rating? A self-rating is an entry rating level determined by the new player based on questions asked in the TennisLink registration process. All players must enter league tennis with a valid computer rating or self rate using TennisLink. 3. What is a Dynamic rating? A dynamic rating is the result of your current match averaged with up to three of your most recent dynamic results generated. A dynamic rating is calculated after each match. A dynamic rating may change with each match played. 4. What is a year-end rating? A year-end rating is a NTRP level assigned at conclusion of the league championship year that reflects level of ability. A player s year-end rating shall be used to enter leagues during the following year and will be valid for up to three years or until another rating is generated. 5. When are dynamic ratings calculated? Dynamic ratings for local play are calculated nightly for the Adult 18 & Over, 40 & Over and 55 & Over Age Groups. During championships, dynamic ratings are run instantly as match results are entered. 6. Is there a difference between a dynamic rating and a year-end rating? Yes. - Dynamic ratings are not disclosed to players, whereas year-end ratings are published annually at NTRP levels. - Dynamic ratings are expressed to the one-hundredth of a point, whereas year-end ratings are expressed to the one-half point. - Dynamic ratings are calculated regularly and based on an average of the current match plus the previous three dynamic ratings, whereas year-end ratings are based on a combination of one s cumulative dynamic rating during the season. 7. Can my rating level change during the championship year? Yes, for self-rated players: - If you receive the 3 rd strike and are dynamically disqualified at your present level. - If a NTRP Grievance is upheld and your level is raised. 8. How does a mixed exclusive player get a rating? Year-end ratings are based on the final dynamic rating generated from local league and championship level competition. This Mixed Exclusive year-end rating will be used as the NTRP start level for the following years Mixed Doubles division. 9. Can I use my mixed exclusive rating to play in other divisions? A Mixed Exclusive player must self-rate in order to join the Adult 18 & Over, 40 & Over, and 55 & Over Age Groups. A mixed exclusive rating is a minimum NTRP start level only and is subject to an NTRP grievance. 10. Do USTA NTRP sanctioned tournaments count in the dynamic rating system? Yes, USTA SoCal includes tournament results entered in TDM for year-end calculations. 11. How can I appeal my rating? - On-line automated appeals can be done when Registering for a team or when you log in to your USTA account in TennisLink. - Who Can Appeal? (1) Computer rated players (2) Mixed Exclusive players (3) Self-rated players - Medical Appeals must be referred/heard by the NTRP Committee. - For further information, visit our website at When and how do I get a self-rating? If you do not have a computer rating you must self-rate before entering a USTA/SCTA league program. You will be asked to go through the self-rating process as you register for a team. Go directly to TennisLink.usta.com/ leagues and log into your USTA account (to establish an account you need an address and a password). Click on Register for a Team and follow the prompts which will lead you through the registration and self-rate process. You will need your team number, and a major credit card. 13. What if I think a self-rated player has not rated themselves accurately? On any given day, a player may play above or below his or her rating. If you have evidence to show that a self-rated player may have falsified information during the self-rating process which you feel is significantly below their skill level, you may file an NTRP grievance. NTRP Grievance forms are located at: under Leagues under Forms&Regulations. 14. Can I declare a different self-rating for different League Divisions (e.g., 3.5 for Adult 18 & Over and 4.0 for 40 & Over)? No, Once you declare an initial self-rating, you are bound by it for two years unless you are NTRP or Dynamically disqualified or until you generate a computer rating. 15. Can I be disqualified if I have a valid computer rating? No, however, players whose year end ratings have been reduced through appeal actions or who have Mixed Exclusive ratings or tournament produced ratings and have self-rated into the Adult Division, are subject to dynamic disqualification. 20
21 FAQ 16. Why would I be dynamically disqualified? Each time a player s dynamic rating exceeds the maximum tolerance for the level, they receive a strike. If a player receives three strikes, they will be notified that they have been dynamically disqualified. This often happens when the player or their captain indicates an NTRP level too low for the player s ability during the self-rating process. This may also happen when the player did not anticipate an improvement level that would surpass their original self-rating. 17. If I receive a third strike while participating in another division, but following the conclusion of our section championship for a given year and division, will I be allowed to advance to Nationals if otherwise qualified. No. 18. What are the consequences of disqualification? In all cases, the player is disqualified from participation at that NTRP level: During local league: The player will be disqualified from participation at that NTRP level for the balance of the season. Matches played will stand. During Championships: The SoCal section elects to run calculations after the championship event. The player will be disqualified from participation at that NTRP level for the balance of the year and the succeeding year. 19. Will I be notified if I earn a strike? No. Notice occurs only after 3 strikes are accumulated. Many players receive 1 or 2 strikes & never get the 3rd. To needlessly worry or prevent a player from participating based on the possibility of getting a strike is not fair to the player or the team. 20. Will I be told exactly which matches earned me three strikes? Yes, if you ask, a copy of your matches can be provided but these are already visible on TennisLink. 21. Who is notified in the event of a disqualification? By whom? How quickly? Responsibility for monitoring dynamic ratings lies with the Section NTRP Coordinator. When a third strike situation arises, the NTRP Coordinator will notify; (a) the player s Team Captain, (b) the affected player and (c) the relevant Area League Coordinator by , using the address as reported on TennisLink. Notification is made as soon as possible once a third strike has been received. 22. Are all players in a given NTRP level equal in ability? No. The NTRP system identifies general levels of ability, but an individual will be rated within those levels at 50 different hundredths of a point. For example, a 3.5 player can fall anywhere between a 3.01 and a This range difference may be the reason many people feel they are playing either below their level or playing against players that are at a higher level. A typical match result for a player, for example, with a 3.01 rating versus a 3.49 player, both of whom are 3.5s, would be 6-0, 6-0 in favor of the higher rated player. 23. If I am disqualified at the Adult 18 & Over, 40 & Over or 55 & Over, am I allowed to participate at the disqualified level in the Mixed Division for the remainder of the league year? No. Although, the rules state that NTRP disqualification is not part of the Mixed Division, it must follow the rules in relation to playing at the correct level. A player who has been moved up as a result of a disqualification in the Adult Divisions must immediately adjust his/her NTRP level of play in the Mixed Division. The player will have two options: - They may continue on that team by adjusting the Levels. (Ex: 9.0 combined team - DQ d 4.5 player now at 5.0 must play with no greater than a 4.0 player) - Or sit out the balance of that season, depending on the section s regulations. In the Mixed Doubles Division, all matches played up until the notification of the disqualification will be counted. Any match played at the disqualified level following notification of the disqualification will be counted as defaults for the individual team match of the disqualified player and 6-0, 6-0 wins for the opponents in those individual matches. 24. If I am NTRP disqualified during the Adult 18 & Over Local league, what happens to my matches in other Divisions? If a local NTRP disqualification occurs concurrently in the Adult 18 & Over, Adult 40 & Over and/or Adult 55 & Over local league seasons, the disqualifications shall affect the matches played by the disqualified player in all Divisions. If the seasons are not concurrent or overlapping, the NTRP disqualification shall affect the matches played by the disqualified player in the season in which the NTRP DQ occurred. 21
