And also, in most regionals I think, a team is more likely to play with or against every other team at least once - 9 to 12 matches with 35 to 60 teams, depending on the regional - which make the OPR more accurate than in a championship division, where you get to play with 40 to 45 teams - 8 or 9 matches, depending on the year - out of 100 teams.
OPR is meant to be more effective if a team plays against or with every other team at least once.
