Not for this season, I halfheartedly complained to the FTAs at our first event this season that our schedule had us playing against a known powerhouse team, that did end up ranked #1, 3 times at a 40 team 12 match event. He told me that as of this season they are not allowed to run the match scheduling program a second time without calling HQ first. I know they weren't messing with me because I've known two of them since well before they were FTAs as we were mentors for the same team for many years before I moved to my new team.
