IVPA Rankings

The IVPA Rankings is a ranking system for Virtual Pro Clubs within the IVPA. The method used to rank teams is based upon the Elo rating system method but modified to take various football-specific variables into account. Also this website uses specific numbers and factors in its implementation of the general ELO-System. Other ELO rankings are of course possible, thus there is not the Elo ranking for a national team.

The ratings consider all international "A" matches for which results could be found. Ratings tend to converge on a team's true strength relative to its competitors after about 10 matches. Ratings for teams with fewer than 10 matches should be considered provisional.
