[gvttc general] GVTTC - Classic League - Teams, Schedule and Rules Posted

[Marc Maronian]

Hello everyone,
 
Welcome to the Classic League

Attached are the schedule and rules for our classic league this year.  I also posted this information on our website located below
 
http://www.gvttc.com/ClassicLeague <http://www.gvttc.com/ClassicLeague>
As of right now the only links that would make sense are the “League Rules Document” and “Teams/Schedules/Byes and Subs and Ladder List” and ”Next Ladder Night”.  The “Team Stats” and “Ladder Results” will update after their first respective weeks.
 
The schedule has 3 tabs which includes contact information for league members along with sub contact info should you need to find a sub
 
For new players, you will notice that we have 2 schedules - one for team play and one for ladder play. Make sure you understand the ladder play portion to know when you have a bye! You may also notice that during team play, we have doubles matches. Depending on the schedule, the doubles teams are the 1&2, 1&3, and 2&3 players.  Feel free to ask me if you have any questions.
 
Team scoring is easy enough. There are 10 matches per evening of team play. If your team wins 6 or more matches, your team scores 2 points. If the match is tied at 5-5, then your team will win 1 point. At the end of the year, whoever wins the most points wins the league. Tiebreaker is based on % of team matches.  Anyone with questions about team and individual scoring please let me know.  
 
Ladder play is peer based, and everyone will always try to move UP the ladder. Usually that is accomplished by making top 2 on your table. Bottom 2 players on each table will move DOWN the ladder. Sometimes a player may not move UP because a player with a bye that week cannot be dislodged from their ranking. You will notice that our first ladder night is October 15th, and the players with a bye that evening are Peter, Burair, Guy and Boris.

Be aware that YOU are responsible for arranging your own substitutes! Make sure you plan ahead here so your team is not stuck with a weak player, or worse yet, a NO SHOW! It will be difficult for me to help the day of league play due to my current work schedule.
 
If you want to play your matches ahead, be aware that all matches on that future date MUST BE COMPLETED prior to the match date. You may NOT play scheduled matches AFTER the scheduled match date.
 
Please make sure you read our rules. Please take a moment to review them.  For older players, there are some new change to how we handle a let along with start times.  Over the years we have crafted them, trying to close any loopholes that may arise. We encourage that everybody plays by the rules, which includes legal serves, timeouts, towel time, etc. I hope you enjoy your season and wish you all the best of luck.
 
Attached is the league schedule and rules in case you cannot access it on the web.
 
Please let me know if you have any questions. 
 
See you all Tuesday.
 
Thank you.
