Round Robin Play, Ladder Play, & Paddle System  Explained

Round Robin Mixer

Round Robin Mixers are a way for you to play with different partners and opponents in each game. Players are divided into groups according to skill.  The novice/intermediates will play on the east courts, and the advanced player will play on the west court.  Players will be assigned number when they sign in.  Players find their number on the Round Robin Assignment Sheet before each round and go to the court where they find their number.

Ladder Mixer

Ladder play is an organized way of mixing up teams base on whether they win or loose. Players start the first round by the better players going to the higher numbered courts and the less skilled players to the lower numbered courts.  After each round, the winners move to the next higher numbered court and split up and the losers move down to the next lower numbered courts and split up.

Paddle System

The paddle system is used to determine who plays next when there are many players present. We have two sets of paddle holders; one is for intermediate/novice who play on the east courts and the other holder is for advanced players who play on the west courts. There are laminated descriptions to help you determine which group you want to play with. Ask any regular player for an explanation of how the system works.
