The metric I'll be using is the top-8 average for each team using my Estimated Dynamic NTRP Ratings and for these lists include the top-40 teams and ties. And to keep a little intrigue and anonymity, I'll be listing the area for the teams but not the team names. Contact me if you are interested in a report with the team specifics and more details.
The first preview will be for the 18 & over 4.0 women, so here they are.

We see there are no runaway teams, but the top 40 (41 with ties) are tightly bunched between 3.97 and 4.04. Yes folks, with players improving (and early start league teams with players that were bumped up at year-end) there are 9 teams with an average rating for their top-8 players into the 4.5 range.
Northern California is the most well represented section with a whopping 13 teams listed, but other sections show up liberally.
If you are interested in a report like the above with even more information for your local league flight or to scout any level of playoffs, a flight report will fit the bill. Not only will you get the top-8 average for each team, but the overall average and a summary showing how each team has played their courts so you can see if they are stronger/weaker in singles vs doubles and if they tend to stack or not. Contact me if interested.
