Singles Ladder
The concept is simple: you challenge a person one or two places above you on the ladder and if you win you take their place. The ladder will run for the rest of the season so people are likely to move up and down over the year. The ladder is open to male and female members.
You challenge a player one or two places above your place. If you win you take their place, if not you stay where you are on the ladder.
You arrange to play your opponent by text or phone at a mutually agreed time; it may be possible, try to avoid playing matches during the social tennis sessions on Fridays and Sundays.
If you are unable to play the match within two weeks, a walkover is awarded to the challenger.
Matches should be best of three sets ie, first to two sets wins.
Play short sets, played to four games, with seven point tie break at 4-4. (This format is often used in tournament play to shorten matches, while still keeping the competitive three set format.)
Service games played as normal, with single point deuce and the receiver deciding which side to play.
The winner of the match sends the results to John Eary (07703501135 or john.eary@btinternet.com) who will maintain the ladder on this page.
