From now till Texas Cup, the following rules apply:

 You may challenge anyone in any position on the ladder.  You do not have to currently be on the ladder to challenge someone that is on the ladder.

 After Texas Cup, we will resume normal ladder rules as listed below.

 Rankings will be available shortly.

a contacts b to play and a brings the balls
b contacts c to play and b brings the balls
c contacts a to play and c brings the balls
This means that each person is responsible for contacting 1 person to play and they will in turn be contacted by 1 person to play. you have 3 weeks to play these 2 matches. After the match is played, send an email with the score to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

Default rules:
1 if attempts to contact are not returned
2 a player notifies the ladder director that he can't play a particular round
3 a player fails to arrive for a scheduled match without canceling

If you do not get an email response back within 3 days, then attempt to contact via phone with the number on http://www.austintennisclub.com

The numbers that are listed there should be valid numbers. If you leave a message and do not get a call back within 2 days of that, email the ladder director at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and let him know. This match will then result in a default. Not the best of situations, but we must keep moving forward.

If you haven't heard from the person that is supposed to contact you with 1 week left in the round, try emailing them first. If you get no response in 2 days (shorter time frame because they were supposed to contact you), email the ladder director and let him know this. This will also result in a default.

Points are based on winning sets and matches the player in your group with the most moves up, least amount moves down, middle stays.
