## How the league works

Players are placed in one of four skill-balanced groups (A–D: Advanced through Beginner), each with 4–5 players. Each Saturday you play a doubles round-robin against everyone in your group (3–4 games; five-player groups include a bye). Games are scored to 11 win by 2, or first to 15. Every point your team scores counts toward your individual tally — points, not wins, set your rank. After each week, the top 1–2 in each group move up and the bottom 1–2 move down. New groups are announced by email each week. Report scores via text to Daniel or the score form; updated standings go out by email before the next Saturday. Rain cancellations are communicated by email as early as possible.
