Welcome to the BOXX PADEL League! Here’s everything you need to know about how our league operates:
League Format:
- Each league consists of 10 teams, with 2 players per team.
- Every team will play each other ONCE over the course of the season TO BEGIN WITH, ensuring plenty of competition and chances to improve.
Match Structure:
- Each match will be played TO 3 SETS OVER 90 MINS.
- The traditional tennis scoring system is used: Love, 15, 30, 40, Game, or Deuce if the score is tied at 40.
- if games are tied 6-6, TIE Breaker WILL BE PLAYED IN the SEVENTH GAME TO DECIDE A WINNER OF THE SET. EACH TEAM WILL SERVE TWICE CONSECUTIVELY and you MUST WIN BY 2 POINTS, WITH A MINIMUM OF 7 POINTS.
- Match results will either be a win/LOSS or a draw.
- Win = 3 points, Draw = 1 point, LOSS = 0.
- IF EACH TEAM IS WINNING 1 SET AND THE THIRD SET IS INCOMPLETE DUE TO TIME, THE MATCH WILL BE DECLARED A DRAW.
- THIS SCORING SYSTEM IS IN LINE WITH PLAYTOMIC RULES.
Set Difference:
- Along with points, we’ll also track the Set Difference, which is the difference between sets won and lost. This will be used to determine standings in case of a tie in points.
Self-Governed Matches:
- Matches will be self-governed by the players, meaning there won’t be a referee.
- After each match, teams will report their results directly to BOXX PADEL, including the final score and set difference.
Substitutions:
- Each team is allowed up to 2 authorised substitutions per season if one of the players is injured.
- A substitute cannot be a registered player for another team but can act as a sub for multiple teams in the league.
Match Days & Times:
- matches WILL BE scheduled either on Tuesdays at 9:30 PM (90 minutes) or Sundays at 6 PM (90 minutes). You can specify your preferred playing time when registering.
Fees:
- The league ENTRY fees will be £100 PER TEAM. This will cover your participation in the season, match scheduling, and league management. We aim to keep the costs reasonable while ensuring a high-quality experience for all players. COURT BOOKINGS WILL BE CHARGED SEPARATELY AND PAYABLE TO THE CLUB DIRECTLY OR VIA PLAYTOMIC.
