Club ladder RULES

The club ladder exists to allow players to challenge each other, thereby improving their position in the club rankings.

Until the ladder is loaded onto the SquashCon system it will exist here.

Rules:

  1. Players are allowed to challenge up to 2 positions above their current position on the log.
  2. A challenger has to propose a date and time for the challenge.
  3. A challenged player cannot decline a challenge. If the challenge is declined the higher placed player forfeits his/her position on the log.
  4. A challenged player can propose another time. A challenge has to be completed within 2 weeks of the challenge being made.
  5. Once a challenge is complete, the same players cannot challenge each other for 2 weeks after the match completion.
  6. All new members automatically gets added to the bottom of the club ladder.
  7. New members get 2 free challenges where they can challenge any player on the log. Losing both challenges will place them at the bottom of the log.
  8. If a player is challenged, the player cannot accept or organise any other challenge until the first challenge is complete.
  9. Every member needs to play in at least one of the two official ranking tournaments in a year to retain their club ranking. These tournaments are the pre-season tournament and the club championships. Failure to play in either of these two tournaments will result in the players ladder position being suspended until the player plays in the next ranking tournament or challenges anyone below his suspended ladder position.
  10. The club ladder will provide the basis for league teams to be selected.
  11. Changes on the ladder could result in changes to league teams.
  12. All players have to notify admin@centurionsquashclub.za.org with challenge results. If this is not done, the ladder is not updated and the challenge void.
  13. All disputes to be addressed to admin@centurionsquashclub.za.org. The decision on disputes is made by the committee and is final.
  14. Rules of the challenge system can change at any time by the committee.

  1. Hi guys. A quick note…
    The ladder is not perfect. In fact I’m sure we made some errors in judgement. However, it is out there. If you feel you deserve to play higher up, challenge. It is in your own hands.
