Concept and Objective of Game Play: ----------- Total of 28 players registered for the session. Gameplay is spread across all 4 courts. Players will be distributed initially based on their DUPR and self ratings. Objective is to keep winning to move up the courts and make it to c4 (and hopefully stay there). Lose and you go down a court. Winners most times at c4 will be the ultimate winner for the night. Allocation of players to courts: -------- C1: 6 players, lowest 8 rated players out of 28 will start game play here C2: 8 players, next 7 rated players out of 28 will start game play here C3: 7 players, next 7 rated players out of 28 will start game play here C4: 6 players: highest 6 rated players out of 28 will start game play here Partnering during Game Play: ------- - A paddle stack is fixed to the fence along the baseline of each of the 4 courts. - Players are required to place their paddles in the paddle stack with no gaps in between. - The paddle that is furthest inward of the stack is p1, followed by p2, p3 and finally p4 (furthest outward). - P1 will pair up with p3, while p2 will pair up with p4. - NO CONSECUTIVE MATCHES WITH SAME PARTNERS - Players are encouraged to move to their next designated courts as soon as possible so there is maximized playtime for everyone involved. Match and points scoring: -------- - These 2 pairs will play against each other in a rally styled scoring match. - First team to reach 11 points will win the match. - Matches end at 11. If score is tied at 10-10 the next point will be a sudden death point. Moving between the courts (c1, c2) ++++++++ - As a team wins, the pair moves up from c1 to c2. The winners will join the paddle queue at c2. - As a team loses, the pair moves down from c2 to c1. The losers will join the paddle queue at 1. - As a team loses at c1, they remain at c1 and join the paddle queue at c1. That losing team cannot PAIR UP AGAIN AND MUST SPLIT AT NEXT MATCH. - Players are encouraged to move to their next designated courts as soon as possible so there is maximized playtime for everyone involved. Moving between courts (c2, c3) ++++++++ - As a team wins, the pair moves up from c2 to c3. The winners will join the paddle queue at c3. - As the team loses, the pair moves down from c3 to c2. The losers will join the paddle queue at c2. ++++++++ - Players are encouraged to move to their next designated courts as soon as possible so there is maximized playtime for everyone involved. Moving between courts (c3, c4) ++++++++ - As the team wins, the pair moves up from c3 to c4. The winners will join the paddle queue at c4. - As the team loses, the pair moves down from c4 to c3.
