Ranking tournaments
 

Ok, so i moved up to u16's this year but havent been able to play any ranking tournaments cus of loads of school work. However, i am free over the winter. So yesterday my dad triad to enter me into a grade 4 tournament which gives you ranking points.But i got turned down as you can only really get in if you have a ranking! So what can i do?! I have no ranking points so i cant get in the tournaments that give you ranking points! Any ideas? :s
Also, i have a better or the same rating as most of the people in the tournament :(

a) What is your rating?
b) What event are you trying to enter?

By the sounds of it you are trying to enter an ariel winter county tournament, of which the entry is done by rating(Or atleast was) then who got their entry in first.
