This preview will identify the top team or two for each gender and level using the top-8 average for each team using my Estimated Dynamic NTRP Ratings.
First, I'll take a look at the women's flights.
The 2.5 women have several strong teams, but TSCP-Davis is the pre-season favorite. Keep in mind that there are usually lots of self-rates and improving players so lots of things can change.
At the 3.0 level, there are four flights so quite a few teams, but one stands above the rest going into the year and that is TCSP-McCaslin.
The 3.5 women has five flights so a lot of teams, but again, one stands above the rest and that is HBSQ-$mallz.
The 4.0 level once again has one team well ahead of the rest and it is CP-Keogh, but they have a really big roster so how often will they play their best players.
The 4.5+ level has just two flights but one team, NTC-Ogborn, appears to be the favorite.
Next, on to the men.
The 3.0 men is tight with PL-Licholai and RBW-Rockets-Faloon but there are a few teams with a lot of self-rates so these two may or may not be the favorites.
There are four flights of 3.5 men and CP-Gents-Paulson is the favorite.
At the 4.0 level, NTC-SMACK-Reddy has a modest lead over the other teams, but it is close behind them.
Last, the 4.5+ level two teams, BETC-Submariners-Nguyen and NTC-Dalkin appear to be the favorites.
There you have it. Favorites don't always win, so none of the other teams should get down if I didn't name them, and if anything, these favorites now have a target on their back so watch out!
If you'd like a full flight report for the flight your team is in, I can provide all of the details including full roster averages and top-8 averages, just contact me.
