Cost Analysis of Proposal:
None |
Rationale for the proposed change:
This proposed change to the Wild Card Points system (except Football)will give balance to all Class A teams as it promotes playing teams with-in your own class. By season’s end, the wildcard ratings will have a better reflection of where a team stands in the system based on playing teams with-in your own class. |
