Awesome Tennis Tips

The Champion's Mind

SLIP LADDER CHAMPIONSHIP CHALLENGE Rules & Guidelines: these guidelines are intended as a framework for competitive fair play, sportsmanship, genuine flexibility, and total fun. We want to Do ALL we can to keep it that way. Cheers.

Challenge Matches are best of 3 sets, the third set being a 10-point tiebreaker, i.e., the first player to 10 points with at least a 2-point advantage wins.

Bring your own balls. Primary responsibility for game balls is with the challenger.

Upon completion of each match, submit match results (i.e., players, score, winner) to Coach.

Each player can challenge any player up to 3 rungs above OR below his or her current rung, except for a challenger's first challenge (tier 1 excluded) in which case that player can challenge anyone up to 6 rungs above OR below (tier 1 excluded).

A player challenged must reasonably collaborate to play that match within seven days unless otherwise obligated to play antother challenge match during that period.

A player may be in receipt of challenges from multiple players within his/her reach, however, NO PLAYER is allowed to issue multiple challenges simultaneously. An issued challenge must be competed or vacated before another challenge is issued. Therefore, a player is not to issue or play any challenge that would result in escaping (whether intended or not) the reach of a challenge already in receipt.

Continue challenging and winning to climb to the top of the ladder and-or earn match-play points in time for the BRAVE MOUNTAIN BATTLE.

Points are awarded for match play, match win, and 3rd set tie-breaker win spread. See 'How Points Are Won.'

To be eligible to compete in the Mountain Battle (Semi-finals and Finals) a minimum of 6 players must have competed climbing the ladder and satisfy the criteria set out above.

Send in your fun and fabulous match selfies & match vids to be posted on our Grandslam Club brand new IG (add to your friends list) and RyoSports Challenge Ladder site.

HOW TO REACH THE TOP TWO RUNGS

PLAY & WIN matches against players occupying rungs above or below you. Play as many matches within the TROPHY SEASON (UP to JUNE 16th) as is necessary to climb to the top and stay at the top. (See Rules & Guidelines).
HOW LUCKY ARE YOU? Step in time onto one of three shifting lucky rungs during one of the three designated lucky dates which will be drawn by a contesting player mid-season and you will be awarded with that number of 'free/lucky' jumps up the ladder. JUMP. Fun-Fun-Fun! BEWARE, though! Win that lucky jump you're likely to be heavily challenged for that spot. (See Game Rules & Guidelines).

HOW TO BE THE 'LUCKY LOSER'

Players win matches and points while climbing (See Rules & Guidelines).
The player with the highest number of points, who did not climb onto Rung1 or Rung 2, is the lucky loser and will earn a spot for the BATTLE at the TOP of the Mountain.
