There are different levels based on the sanctioning body that you play with. The most common are the USAV levels and AVP (Victorian ?) Levels.

USAV goes from B,BB,A,AA and Open. USAV ranks whole teams based on their ability to compete. Open level teams would give the US National Team a run for their money. B level teams are still very talented and able, still running up tempo offences and sophisticated defense.

The Victorian system used outdoors is very similar in that it uses the same progression, however the skill levels are much different.

You do have to keep in mind however that each local league or tournament will have it's own rating system (some use the nationally recognized systems). Be sure to talk to the TD before entering to see where you and your team should be.

Others can feel free to add here but that's my $.02
