NEW - Singles Ladder Box League - Starting Mid June

 

 

Members (adults and juniors 14+) are warmly invited to register for a new Singles Ladder Box League.  Building on our great coach led mix-in sessions, this is your chance to take all that energy and positive learning a further stage forward.

If we have sufficient entries, more than 1 box will be created with promotion / relegation of players between boxes at the end of each period  - about every 2 months.


At each match, players can choose to play in either of the following 2 short formats :

CLASSIC 3 SET

  • Optionally play 3rd Set as 10 point Championship Tie Break

NEXT GEN 3 SET

  • 4 game sets
  • Tie-break at 3 games all
  • No lets on serve
  • Sudden-death points at deuce

MATCH SCORING IN BOTH FORMATS

  • WIN =4 points
  • LOOSE =1 point + 1 point for any set won
  • BONUS =2 points if play all matches in your box

RESULTS 

These will be sent to all players each week by email and posted on the website.
