Currently the "lower" grades ( Div 6-8) of SRA 2016, Sydney Spring Pennant West utilize a Handicap system.
We believe the system is unfair as it:
# skews" Matrix scores - especially, noting that the current SQUASHMATRIX does not allow for the players “handicap used on the night” to modify the final MATRIX score results allocated against each player.
# unfairly disadvantages (but not limited to) the large majority of “mature” players who are no longer as mobile, or have the same aerobic capacity as their younger compatriots,
# adds unnecessary further stress for the “handicapped” player.
# further lengthening matches.
# Except for Div 7 & 8, the spread of Matrix ranking (Div 1 to 6) teams is similar (from position 1 player to last position player, on % basis) - with no need seen to implement a handicap system for Div 1 to 5 teams to-date?
We, the undersigned, are concerned squash players in the 2016, SRA Sydney Spring Pennant West, Division 6 - who urge the Sydney SRA to act now to revoke this Squash Handicap System.
