The ladders run each year from March until November. Each Tuesday by the close of business, the updated ladder and one planned match for each player for the next seven days will be posted on the iTennis Ladder app, and a copy will be posted at YTC.
It is up to the two opposing players in a planned match to set the match time and location so that the match is complete by 9 p.m. on the following Monday. A nice courtesy would be for both players to bring an unopened can of balls and the winning player will get to keep the can that was not used in the match. Match scoring should typically be ad scoring, two six game sets, and a ten point tie breaker if players split sets. Players may also play matches on the ladder in addition to the weekly planned match, just go on the app and challenge each other or contact and arrange a match (players may decline to play the extra match with no impact on ladder position, but if agreed to play then the match outcome will affect ladder position). Match results with scores must be reported on the APP before Monday 9pm.
Players can also deactivate and reactivate themselves on the APP as they are traveling or not available.
We will regularly give out “Fair Play” awards based on feedback received from players describing examples of good sportsmanship displayed by their opponent in a ladder match. Please send to fbosman@auburnalabama.org an email describing the example of your opponent being a good sport, the ladder competition committee will select the most deserving person(s).
If you know someone else that may want to play on the ladder just have them join a ladder or contact Francois by email at fbosman@auburnalabama.org and give him their name, cell phone number for texts, and NTRP level or other information that may be used to set their initial position on the ladder. If there are any other questions about the ladder just send Francois an email with those questions. fbosman@auburnalabama.org
See below for players on the 2022 ladder that received Sportsmanship awards. Congratulations to Will, Josh, Heather and Jere Scott.
