PICKLEBALL LADDER LEAGUE

The Co-Ed Pickleball Ladder League format is designed to create new matchups each week and have players play with players of similar skill levels. Weekly rankings are based on performance.

Players will move up or down the ladder based on wins/losses (not points scored). Each week, players will start in groups of four in the order of ladder ranking. After each game to 11, the winning partnership will move up the ladder and the losing partnership will move down. Partners swap each game. There is a maximum of three wins each league night. After a maximum of five games per team have been played, open play is allowed for the remainder of the time slot when courts are available.

Top two players will get free enrollment to the next season of the league. No class 7/1.
