Sinopsis

Ever wondered how you can really tell who the top solo pipers are across a massive region like the Eastern United States?   This week, Andrew introduces Jim to the new EUSPBA Greatest Hits program – a ranking system that takes a bunch of measures into account, rather than just aggregating total points.    They discuss why it matters, the challenges of ranking players across a huge geographic area, the problems with the old points system, and how the new approach brings a more fair way to rank players that could bring back some excitement and participation across the region.    Got a topic you’d like us to cover in a future episode?
