After National introduced a 4-court format for 2020 40 & Over, there were bound to be changes and a month ago, Pacific Northwest announced they would be using Points-per-Position scoring for regular season standings, and now I've learned Northern California will be using PPP as well.
It was almost certain to happen, a 4-court format with the possibility for 2-2 ties just begs for a change to the format, and I hypothesized National was secretly pushing for PPP to be used more, and whether that is the case or not, it is happening.
Like PNW, NorCal is assigning one point to all courts other than court 1 doubles which will be assigned two points. There will thus be five points up for grabs in each match, and the team match "win" has no meaning as standings are simply determined by accumulated points.
What do you think? What other sections are introducing PPP for 40 & Over in 2020?
