CHALLENGE LADDER

All Challenge results should be recorded by the winner and reported to Raj at 780 832 6312 or by email.

Results will then be recorded on the Bulletin Board at the Courts and on the ladder list above. These will then be used as the Official Rankings for seeding in future Club Tournaments.

How do you get your name on the list and how do you challenge other players on the Challenge Ladder?

The Challenge Ladder is an easy way of finding out where your playing ability rates in respect to other players in the Club.  It is also an excellent way of getting out to play and meet other members!

• All new Members (if so requested) will have their names placed at the bottom of the ladder. From there, it is up to the player to challenge other players and hence move up the ladder.  An "Open Challenge" means you can challenge any player from any ladder during that time.
• If your name is not on the Challenge Ladder, call 780 832 6312 to have it added.
• Then just call the person you would like to play from the players' list and set up a mutual date and time for the game.
• Notify "Tennis Central" at 780 832 6312 of the final arranged match date, time and results of the match thereafter.
• Make sure you read all the RULES and are familiar with the ones pertaining to a CHALLENGE MATCH which are listed below.

The results will be posted below on this website ASAP.
