Welcome to the new CGVA Rating & Division System
We are unveiling a new system that includes getting an individual rating (1-7) and divisions that are now named colors.
Individuals ratings are from 1-7.
1 being the most advanced to 7 being recreational.
See your rating on your cgva.org account dashboard via a browser on your phone or computer. (Currently it does not display in the app, League Apps.)
CLICK HERE to learn more from how the rating process works, how to get rated, re-rated, and more.
Taking inspiration from the P R I D E Flag, division names will now be colors.
Most advanced (RED) to Recreational (BLUE).
To allow for the nuances of calculating skills,
some ratings can register for multiple divisions.
RED DIVISION = RATING 1-2
ORANGE DIVISION = RATING 2-3
YELLOW DIVISION = RATING 3-4
GREEN DIVISION = RATING 4, 5, 6, 7
BLUE DIVISION = RATING 5, 6, 7

REPRESENTING PRIDE FLAG COLORS
So why are we moving to a color naming system, you ask?
- We want to create a more inclusive community that encourages competition without the stigma of ONLY using exclusive hierarchal terminology such as advanced to beginner.
- Each color on the Pride Flag has a meaning that is a beautiful representation for building community.
- Each division's color and its meaning is a way to have players build camaraderie and take pride in the division they play for and represent.
So what does each color represent? So glad you asked!
