How is Cardinal FC rated?

Real league standings. The division publishes a table but not usable match-by-match results, so the rating is fitted to points and goal difference and moves as the table moves. Cross-league placement is calibrated on roughly 600 U.S. Open Cup results, the only competition where clubs from different tiers actually play each other — full methodology.

Where Cardinal FC sits

Cardinal FC — common questions

Is this the official UPSL ranking?
No. Ranked XI is an independent national table. UPSL publishes its own standings; this page places Cardinal FC on one scale that runs from MLS to the grassroots so clubs in different leagues can be compared.
What does a rating of 1405 mean?
It is an Elo-style strength estimate from real league standings, calibrated across leagues on about 600 U.S. Open Cup results. Higher is stronger. It is a measure of form and level, not a prediction that Cardinal FC would win any particular match.
Why is a club from another league listed as a rival?
"Nearest rated rivals" means nearest by distance, not by league. Because every club sits on one scale, the closest club to Cardinal FC is shown whatever division it plays in.
Is this betting advice?
No. Ranked XI publishes ratings and probabilities as data. Nothing on this site is betting advice.

Every Ranked XI rating labels its basis. Cross-league placement is calibrated on ~600 U.S. Open Cup results — how the ratings work. Ranked XI is an independent project: not an official USSF or league ranking, not affiliated with any league or club, and not betting advice. Marks belong to their owners.
