Its easy enough to add handicap to stronger teams based on their overall position, ie the first place team gives up 2 or 3 additional balls per round.
The league I played in would vote on this in between each session.
Personally, I think the better teams should win most of the time. Handicap should give other teams a chance, but that's all.
I would rather play in a league geared to stronger players, not bangers.
Watching APA 2s and 3s play a match makes me want to gouge
my eyes out with a spoon.

I will weigh in on this.
The issue I have with the BCAPL system is that it is not enough of a handicap to stop the stacked team from dominating. I played on a team that would typically take 22 or 23 of the 25 individual matches (a good number of them with Break and Runs and so you have a 10-0 or a 10-1 score being posted repeatedly and the lesser skilled teams (even good ones) could not make up the ground. My team won 4 sessions straight, which should not happen in a handicap league that works.
Just my opinion
