• Warm-up time will be 10 minutes.
• Matches in each Line are played in a best-of-three format. The first team to win two sets wins the match. 
• One Deuce, Golden Point scoring applies. If the score reaches 6-6, a tiebreaker is played to 7 points, with at least a 2-point margin.  
• If the match is not finished due to time or weather, the Club will assist in finding a time for finishing the match. The existing match score when the match stopped will remain the same. 
• If a player gets injured during the match and cannot continue playing, the other team wins the match.
• Walk-over meaning (W.O.)
• Victory is awarded to a team when opponents concede a match before it begins, usually due to injury or illness. 
• This rule also applies if a team arrives more than 15 minutes late without notifying their opponents. After a 15-minute delay, the team waiting on the court has the right to claim a W.O. and wins the match by default. If they choose this option, they must inform the late-arriving team upon their arrival. However, If they decide to proceed with the match, they forfeit the right to claim a W.O. if they lose the match. 

Ranking System

• Match won: 3 points
• Match lost: 1 point
• Match not played due to unjustified W.O. (walk-over): 0 points to the team that did not attend the match and 3 points to the team that attended the match. The result will be 6-0 6-0.
• Match not played: 0 points to both teams.
• Match not finished due to injury of one of the players: 1 point to the injured team and 3 points to the other team. The result will be 6-0 6-0.

The Draft:

• We will have 6 team captains who can be of any skill level.
• Captains will receive their Draft Position based on their WPR ranking, with the lowest-ranked captain picking 1st. 
• All players that sign up for the league will have their WPR rating and will be placed in a “Group” to assist captains in selecting their team. 
• The “Snake Draft Order” will be used for team selections, with each team consisting of 8 to 10 players in their roster (3 from each Group).
