wat does everyone think of the April Rankings?

look mate i have seen that nobody has responded to you so therefore you must feel very small and like a woman!!!! and i think people must be happy with the rankings as it isnt causing up a stir!!!

That's kind of you cheeky.
Generally i think the rankings have sorted out quite well.
Biggest problems r in U15 boys where loads r in wrong place as there r lots here who only seem to play a few tournaments. Anyway thats their problem.
U17 and U13 r quite accurate.

i think the rankings are good and a lot better. Although i do not agree with higher age group points being used in the lower age groups.

E.g

If you are in the under 17s ranking,
you should be able to use under 13, 15 and 17 ranking points but not under 19 ranking points.

I would say that is the only anomolie in the system, and once that is sorted then the rankings i feel will work very well.

Actually "Cheeky", there obviously has been a bit of a problem with the rankings cos they've changed the U15 girls and now u can't access parts of the system. So there really is no need to be so rude in your replies!

they updated the rankings like on the 28th or something, i checked, i was like 20th. The next day i was 23rd!
could anyone tell me why?

who shud be ranked further up in the u15s?

Because you are not very good?

why did you check the rankings twice in two days! thats just sad!

just lyk to say y r loads of ppl so low in rankin for example dec james ross brown and yousseff abdulla is it coz dey not doing tournmants well not our fault nyway if dey dont go tournis becoz some ppl r keen on rankings and go to tournis and some r gd enuf but dont go

If they are good enough then they should go to the tournaments. Why should they be higher just because they think they should. If they good put the money where YOUR mouth is like lots of parents have to and do the tournament circuit!

Whats the point in playing ESF junior
circuit if at the end of day they have U19 European Champs and seeding goes according to junior committee and not current ESF seedings.If you have ESF seedings then they should be used at the ESF European Champs or are there two standards being kept...

If they did Seeding for the Europeans using the European ranking it would be ridiculous because many of the top juniors don't play enough european tournaments to have a true ranking so they would be seeded way to low and a potential finalist could me camille or nikki in the first round!

I think that would be tough ! But hey it's up to everyone who wants a good seeding to play the tournaments. If you are good enough you will win anyway.

If you play in the tournaments you deserve to get the advantage of good seeding

I totally disagree.
You play a tournament you get points then you are seeded,no favours because you come from a certain country,you earn your ranking by hard work within
the system,there are not two laws for different people,all players MUST play under same standards.Who is to say that Joe Bloggs in England shoud be seeded higher thah Jean Pierre or Tom Slovak or Dave Cohen or Dimitris Palaopopalis.Ill tell you who a committee who may have seen Joe Bloggs becacause he plays in you know where but has no idea who Dimitris is,so we get the double standards,ESF get you act together and have same standards for ALL PLAYERS wherever they come from

oi no one put ma name in their messages if i wana say sumthing about me then i will say it, otherwise shut it!!!!

now now!

voom! a flying pig! don't talk utter nonesense
