PHL Player Rankings

The PHL consists of five divisions based on skill and knowledge. Each player is ranked on the scale below.

Please note: Because a player’s definition of their own individual skill assessment will vary, each player will be reassessed by PHL General Managers. The PHL reserves the right to move players within divisions who may have ranked themselves incorrectly. This helps promote fair play and allows us to create even strength teams.
