American Tennis with Chuck Kriese

Chuck Kriese interviews Coach Dave Fish of Harvard. The entire interview is done on the revolutionary ‘Universal Rating System’. The URS is a system that has been developed by Dave Fish. This brilliant idea is now being explored in many different venues as it allows each and every competitive player to have a rating (not a ranking). These ratings allow tremendous flexibility for competitors as players from any age, sex, league etc… The fallacy of our competitive structure in the US has been that we have segregated all players by age and sex and location. The Universal rating System allows many options that could multiply the number of players exponentially immediately. Interestingly, this system is being met with opposition by those organizations that head up tennis in our country.
