I have been playing in my local pool halls and bars winning quite often and cashing in tournaments. I have been offered to play on an APA team. It seems like great fun and I am willing to get a regualr game scheduled. I understand their is a rating system 2 worst and 7 best. New players will start as a 4 and my players are urging that I stay a 4 for the session or sessions. My response is that is sandbagging. Their's is no you do not have to lose but jsut soft break make the rack messy get plenty innings and still win the game and you will not go up.
1. Is that correct?
2. Apart from pride why wouldn't players do that especially since you want to have a chance of winning and going to nationals teams and doubles and apparently at the nationals everyone is a sandbagger is some respect.
