Match Format & Gameplay
Every league night, your team will have a maximum of 2 hours to play 5 sets against a single opponent.
Regardless of who wins the early sets, teams will attempt to play all 5 sets within their designated time slot.
All sets are played win by 2, with no cap.
Standings & Re-Tiering
Leagues are divided into tiers of 4 to 6 teams. We use a set-based standings system to re-tier teams throughout the season.
Match Point System:
The winner of each set is awarded 1 point in the standings.
Teams can earn a maximum of 5 points each week.
After a full round-robin is completed within a tier (each team plays every other team once), the team with the most points moves up a tier, and the team with the lowest points moves down for the next round of competition.
All schedules and results will be posted online. We strive to update standings as quickly as possible following league nights.
Policy Overview This policy outlines the rules, penalties, and compensation procedures regarding unplayed matches resulting from a team's failure to attend. The objective of this policy is to deter absences and compensate opposing teams for lost playing time.
1. Definition of a Default A default is declared when a team fails to arrive for a scheduled match or arrives without the minimum number of players required to legally start the game by the scheduled start time.
2. Default Penalties & Fees League matches in this division consist of a single match per scheduled night. Therefore, a declared default will result in a flat $50 penalty fee assessed to the offending team.
3. Enforcement & Future Registration The league does not collect an upfront default deposit. Penalties are enforced via registration restrictions:
-
Upon a declared default, the offending team’s captain will be invoiced for the corresponding penalty fee.
-
The offending team will be permitted to complete the current season's schedule.
-
The team and its captain will not be permitted to register for any upcoming leagues or seasons until the outstanding invoice is paid in full.
4. Opponent Compensation 100% of all collected default fees are paid directly to the opposing team(s) affected by the unplayed matches in the form of a gift card.
5. Substitution Requirements & Exemptions The league does not grant penalty exemptions or fee waivers for advanced notice of player absences.
-
It is the strict responsibility of the team captain to ensure the minimum required number of eligible players is present for every scheduled match in any capacity.
-
If a team anticipates a player shortage, they are required to secure substitute players to avoid a default. Captains may utilize the substitution "Meet Up Form" linked on the league website or borrow eligible players from other registered teams.
-
Failure to meet the minimum player requirement by the scheduled start time, regardless of how far in advance league administration is notified, will result in the immediate application of all standard default fees and penalties outlined in Section 2.
6. Player Shortages & Exhibition Play If a team does not have the minimum required number of players present on game night, they are permitted to utilize substitute players found at the facility to meet the minimum requirement.
-
The official match result will be recorded as a default loss for the short-handed team.
-
The scheduled time will be used to play an exhibition match.
-
No financial penalties will be assessed, provided the exhibition match takes place.
