What does "Only ranked teams can participate" mean?

What Is Team Rank?

Team rank is a six-level indicator unique to Tournament Manager that is assigned to teams based on Anarchy Power and tournament results. See here for the relationship between Anarchy Power and team rank.
If you do well in tournaments, your rank will increase.

The director can specify a rank limit for tournaments. A single tournament can have up to four simultaneously held divisions, each with different rank limits.

If you have not participated in a team-rank tournament but your existing team already has a team rank, then that is because another member of the same team has participated in a tournament and determined the team rank.
