Registration

The first round usually starts at the beginning of the month. Go to your member portal and register.  Afterwards, ladders will close on the last day of each month and be refreshed on the first day of the next month. New participants can join at any time but may have to wait until the next month to play if they are too late in registering.

Booking games

Please book a court as you would for a normal game and arrange your own matches. Please bring your own game balls.  We suggest you each bring a tin of new balls to the game then play with one can and the loser gets the unopened can.

Ladder Rules

  1. Players are placed in boxes based on their skill level.

  2. Players play matches against every other player in the same box. Players must do their best to complete ALL matches in the box during that month. 

  3. Each match will be a Pro set, first player to win 8 games, winning by 2 games. If the score reaches 7-7, play a 7 point tiebreaker. 

  4. If time runs out, record whatever games are complete, unless players mutually commit, before starting play, to finish the match at a later time.

  5. Players provide the balls. Warm-up is 5 minutes.

  6. Players make calls on their own side of the net. If you are in doubt, give the opponent the benefit of the doubt. Either partner may make calls in doubles.

  7. 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 point for a loss, and 0 points for a default loss (no-show).

  8. If a game is stopped due to failing light, the score will be carried over to the next day.

  9. At the end of the round (usually about a month) players are promoted or demoted into higher or lower boxes based on the previous round's results.

  10. New players can be added at start of the round or with permission from the Pro, and will be placed according to their NTRP rating.

  11. Management will be responsible for final arbitration of any issues or disputes.

  12. If you have an extended absence planned, please notify the front desk or manager.
