The USTA sent out a February newsletter I received today and it had a link to an update on NTRP ratings. See http://www.usta.com/Adult-Tennis/USTA-League/your_ntrp_rating_what_does_it_mean/
Given some of the interesting stats I've blogged about, I found some of what they shared similarly interesting.
Over 240,000 players were issued ratings, nearly 84% stayed at the same level. Of the 16% that moved, 10% went up, 6% went down.
Self-rated players had 60% stay at their self-rate level, 18% went up, 22% went down.
The self-rated stat is interesting with more being bumped down than up. 18% going up is still a large number mind you so there is certainly still a lot of self-raters that under-rate or improve as they play and get bumped up.
