My spring 18&over 4.0 spring season starts February 6th. There three teams this season instead of only two last season.
The team I am on has been playing with each other for the past 4-5 years several different format teams (combo, mixed, etc). A lot of us on the team either have been 4.0 for a while and some of us have made it thru the rankings starting at 3.0. We are definitely the strongest of the three teams. One team is a rag tag team with mostly 3.5s, the captain is new to captaining so I don't see them winning many matches. The other team has a veteran captain that has decent players but has several 3.5s and weak 4.0s and their overall team is significantly weaker than ours.
There are three players on my team that were bumped up to 4.5 and won their appeal down. There is another that was rated 4.5M for several years and finally got bumped down. That being said how would you play it? Just have fun and try our best not to get bumped up? I foresee this season being very one sided.
