LADDAR RULES



The ultimate goal of ladder play is to be the player in the top position on the ladder. Also, the other goals are to provide an opportunity for players to have fun, meet some new players, and get a chance to work on improving their tennis game. All players will have volunteered to participate in the program, therefore, please display good sportsmanship by adhering to the guidelines set to govern fair play.
Each player must provide a telephone number (preferably mobile) and if possible an email address where he/she can easily be reached for setting up matches – the ability to text arrangements would be beneficial to the smooth running of the scheme.


The players should make all possible attempts to schedule the match at a convenient time.
Matches:

1-The ladder runs on monthly bases, you must play all the players in your box.
2-Time, date and court should be mutually agreed upon.
