Squash Ladder

What is a Squash Ladder?

A squash ladder is a good way to encourage games between members looking for someone to play or even to challenge you.

Rules:

1. You can only challenge one level above your current level above your current level.
2. You must play a challenge match with someone at an equal or lower level before challenging someone in a level above your current level.
3. You have the option to refuse a challenge, if you have already played a match with the challenging player in the past two weeks.
4. You may play other players at your own level (or below) as often as you like (however, the only way to move up the ladder is to play someone in a higher level).
5. A player moves up on a ladder by challenging another player at a higher level and winning the match. The winning player takes the losing player's position. The losing player moves down one position, and shifts everyone beneath him/her down one position.
6. A player can also move up the ladder if they are challenged by a higher level player and beats the challenger.
7. Matches are played to the best of three-five games (can be played to best of two of three if both players agree).
8. Players are responsible for scheduling their matches and arranging their own court times as well as recording the results of the match. Results will be updated and posted weekly.
9. Matches should be played within a week of the challenge being issued.
