Re-grading a team occurs during a current season and allows a team to be up-/down-graded to a different division once matches have been played. Where required, the migration of squad lists, match data and ladder points is facilitated.
Typically this occurs in competitions that allow re-grading to occur if a team is winning or losing a large percentage of their matches.
- Start by selecting the Source Grade, Team to Regrade and Destination Grade.

- It is recommended that you review the newly re-graded team, including:
- Checking the fixtures of both source & destination grade.
- Checking the ladder display of both source & destination grade.
- Checking the Team settings in Grade manager page.
- Rerunning the draw creator wizard.
