Have fun moving up (and down) a ladder as you compete against other Club players.
How it works:
Players are placed in groups, or boxes. You play everyone in your group.
At the end of each match, enter your score and the winner.
Depending on numbers, we will aim to have five players in each group. The top two players move up, the two move down. The one in the middle stays.
You can also challenge anyone in the group or box above you for fun.
Booking games:
Please arrange your own matches. You can find people’s phone numbers in our members directory at the RLTC website. Contact the front desk if you don’t know the password.
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.
Please book a court as you would for a normal match but let the attendants know it’s a ladder game. This will entitle you to a maximum of 90 minutes to complete each match, including warmup. If you finish within an hour and people are waiting for the court, please give up the court for the waiting players.
Match format:
The matches will be a pro set of first to 8 games, winning by 2 games. If the score reaches 7-7, a regular tiebreak is played, the winner being the first to reach 7 points, winning by 2 points.
Option: If you want to keep the match shorter and both agree in advance, you can play a “no add scoring” match so when the score is 40-40 (or deuce) during the match, you play only one more point to determine who wins the game. The person receiving decides which side of the court to receive the ball on.
Rules:
Players are reminded they are responsible for calls on their side of the net, and the opposing player must accept their decision. If there is any doubt, normal etiquette is to give the opponent the benefit of the doubt.
Players should avoid replaying a point, though this is always an option if both sides agree.
If a game is stopped due to failing light, the score will be carried over to the next day.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Julie Smyth at smythj30@yahoo.ca and please feel free to provide any feedback on the ladder at any point.
Thank you again for registering and have fun!
