5. You may only play an opponent on the ladder 2 time(s).

6. Forfeits will not be treated like a lost match, and will have no affect on rankings or points.

7. Any of the following match formats can be used:

10 Game Pro Set: A 10 game pro set is first to 10 games by a margin of two games. A 12-point tie-break is usually played when the score is 10-10.

Example scores: 10-6 or 11-10


8. The following system will be used to compute a player's position on the ladder.

Leap Frog: This is the most basic and straightforward ranking system. When a lower-ranked player defeats a higher-ranked player, the lower-ranked player “leapfrogs” the higher-ranked player and takes their position. The higher-ranked player, along with everyone ranked between them, moves down one spot. If the higher-ranked player wins, the rankings do not change. For doubles matches where players are ranked individually, the same concept is applied using points. The winning players receive a new point value equal to the average point value of their opponents, which determines their new positions in the rankings.

9. All ladder members should maintain current contact information. If you change phone numbers or e-mail addresses, you must update your profile so other member can contact you and you will receive email notifications.
