Winter Season 2012

Your final ranking determines your seed in the tournament.
Begins February 1, 2012.

The Singles Tennis Ladder consists of two groups:
• Group A and Group B.
• Each player has been placed in a group that has players
  around their skill level. Your original position has been
  set at random.
• A player from group B can move up to group A depending
  on their match results.

Placement System:
• 10 Points for scheduling a match.
• 40 Pts for beating a higher ranked player.
• 30 Pts for beating a lower ranked player.
• 10 Pts total if a higher ranked player beats a lower ranked player in a league match.

Challenging:
You can challenge anyone on your ladder while
following the Equalizer rule. This rule is only used in the second half of the season.

New Equalizer Rule:
• Used when a higher ranked player challenges a lower ranked player. • Formula to figure out Equalizer: Lower Equalizer player # -
  Higher Equalizer player # = Starting set score.
• Ex.: When a player with a 0 Equalizer challenges a player with
  a 4 Equalizer the lower ranked player will start out each set at (4-0).
• Ex.: When a 3 Equalizer player challenges a 4 Equalizer player
  the lower ranked player (4 Equalizer) will start each set up (1-0).
• You may only use the Equalizer rule once both players
  have completed at least one match with normal scoring.

Official Matches:
• Best of 3 sets with a 10 point tiebreaker as the 3rd set.
• Or players can agree to an 8 game pro set.
• League and Contract Matches will count but will not
  receive the 10 Points for scheduling a match.
• Please hand all match results sheets in to the front desk.
