New Mixed Ladder

The new mixed ladder launches on Tuesday 3 June – if you have entered read on for more info.

The new mixed ladder will start on 1 June and continue until  30 September so you have 4 months to play your games. In order to keep things simple for the initial trial of the ladder we have stuck to the traditional box league format with the same rules as the singles ladders ie first to 9 games with a  7 point tie break to be played at 8 games all (a point scored for each game / two for a win / one for playing).

We have divided pairs into four ladders each with ten pairs based as far as possible on Brookside ratings. The top three pairs will be promoted, the bottom three demoted. There will be prizes  for the best on court partnerships in each ladder based on their humour, sportsmanship, and positive attitude (this prize to be voted for by your fellow ladder players at the end of the season).

The full ladder is here.

In the spirit of encouraging a social ambiance we have allocated Brookside on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for you to play your matches, so you can then join in club social and partake in drinks after your matches.  Due to how busy the singles ladder is in the summer, if you plan to play your matches on the weekend, please try and use the Brookside courts.  There will be a sign up sheet in the club house so you can arrange your matches on Brookside.

Join everyone for a kick-off mixed ladder social evening on Tuesday 3rd June at 7 pm – the organisers will explain how it’s going to work and you can start to set-up your matches.

The ladders are also on the notice board in the club house.
