If you’re wondering how SquashLevels stacks up against SportyHQ, let’s clear up a common misconception: we’re not competitors. In fact, we work hand in hand. SquashLevels connects seamlessly with SportyHQ to deliver a richer experience, giving players access to tools and insights that go far beyond what either system can achieve on its own.
What are Levels? The ultimate aim of SquashLevels is to assess the level at which every player on the system is playing after every match they play and give them a number – their level – to represent that.
It’s important to remember that the level calculated by SquashLevels is an assessment of how well you’re playing at the moment and that is based on your results and the level of the person you played. If you’re better than your opponent then you’re expected to win so the big question is not ‘did you win?’ but how did your result compare with what was expected? If you didn’t do as well then your level will go down – at least a little.
In the world of SquashLevels, there is a misconception that better players must hammer their lesser opponents in order to maintain their rating, however, this is simply not the case.
