Under 14s Ladder
The ladder is open to male and female members under 14. The concept is simple: you challenge a person one or two above you on the ladder and if you win you take their place. At the end of each quarter (December 31st, March 31st, June 30th, and September 30th) the current leader of the ladder will be declared and receive a prize.
The rules:
- 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 at a mutually agreed time; it may be possible, try to avoid playing matches during the social tennis sessions .
- If you are unable to play the match within two weeks, a walkover is awarded to the challenger.
- Matches should be one set
- Play short sets, played to six games, (e.g. won at 6-0, 6-1, 6-2, etc. At 6-5 the player with the advantage needs to win one more game to win the set (e.g. 7-5, 8-6...)> At 6-6 a seven point tie break is played. .
- 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 on WhatsApp who will maintain the ladder on this page.
For privacy reasons contact details are not displayed on this page but participants can contact each other through the Club’s WhatsApp groups.
