This is the recommended choice for small divisions (6 teams or less), or divisions where all teams are theoretically equal in skill level and there are enough games in the season for every team to play every other team. There is also a scheduling option for round robin divisions which essentially splits the division in half, if there are only enough games for each team to play half of the other teams.

Division standings are based on win/loss record.

The Modified Elo calculator is an older variant, retained primarily for backward compatibility. It has been found to have shortcomings when used for Ultimate. It is not recommended for use in new leagues.

This uses a modified Elo system, similar to the one used for international soccer, with several modifications:

  • all games are equally weighted
  • score differential bonus adjusted for Ultimate patterns (a 3 point win in soccer is a much bigger deal than in Ultimate)
  • no bonus given for home-field advantage
