How can re-write this sentence better?
The global PWM is an average value of 1000 PWM values obtained by performing a random selection for 1000 iterations of 2 groups of 500 samples from the two classes of match results.
match results is actually one team for example, times that won the match and times that lose the match.
PWM is probability of winning the match
I want to express, the global PWM is calculated in this way
select 500 samples from class of 'win'
select 500 samples from class of 'lose'
then calculate a PWM
Do it for 1000 times and obtain an average value.
Does my sentence make any sense?

I think I would approach this differently. I would spell it out in steps, and break the one sentence up for ease of understanding. However, your process is not clear to me, so I may have expressed in incorrectly.

- Are the samples randomly chosen at the beginning or when you calculate the PWM?
- And how do you calculate the individual PWM vs the globabl PWM?

Actually, we don't care about the way to calculate the PWM.
The key part of the sentence is the selection of 500 samples from both sets.
Each PWM is calculated with two groups of the selected samples of Win and Lose.
(500 samples are randomly selected from WIN, and another 500 selected randomly from LOSE.)
This is performed for 1000 times so that we have 100 PWMs at last.

This sounds like you are only doing one calculation (the average of the 1000). So your use of PWM is confusing. I would say:
The probability of winning any upcoming match (PWM) is calculated by first selecting 500 random samples of team wins and 500 samples of team losses, then obtaining the average value of these samples.
