the last digit refers to the League Threshold ; this Treshold index determines the number of teams from the single league, which qualify for the KA Football Club Global Rating in accordance with the „national algorithm” (one of two used qualification algorithms);
e.g. if Threshold is "3" this means that clubs holding 1 to 3 places qualify for the Chamber Classes;

additionally, the "plus" sign means that the qualification for the Chamber Classes is also awarded to the winner of domestic cup;
