Markham Tennis Club Junior Program Descriptions

Junior Tennis Ladder 

The type of Ladder that we are playing is a Box Ladder. There will be up to 5 people in a box. The intention is that you will play each person in the box once during each month. At the beginning of the month you can view your Ladder by clicking the Game time Ladder option and arrange matches with your box opponents. All scores will be entered by the participants directly on Game time, which will keep track of the standings.

You can join a ladder at any time, but new entrants will only begin play at the beginning of the following month. On the last day of each month the Ladder will be shuffled. The top 2 players will move up a box, the bottom 2 players will move down a box, and any new players will be added. To ensure active participation in the ladder, players who have not played any ladder matches at the end of the month will be removed from the ladder and will need to re-register to participate the following month.

When you begin play, you will be placed in a box with players of similar skill levels. A Ladder is meant to give everyone a competitive match so identifying your current skill level is important. 

Our Head Tennis Professional will be managing this Ladder for the season.
