Women's International Ratings

1993

These ratings are based on all reported 1993 FIFA "A" matches, combined with historical information in the form of a `prior distribution'. If you linked to this page directly, without reading the explanation of the rating system, you may want to go back and read my International ratings pages, or my general discussion of ratings.

The data are from Ron Kessler's RSSSF archive of 'A' Internationals.

The column labeled SE (standard error) is an estimate of the uncertainty in the ratings. The column labeled Opp is the average rating of each team's opponents during the rating period. Teams with 0 games in the current rating period are included for completeness, with their most recent rating.

The home field advantage was about 56 rating points.
