Club Leagues/Ladders

Because of the inability of members to attend every club night the leagues have been abandoned in favour of club ladders. This is ideal for new clubs just starting up.

Ladder rules are kept to a minimum and as simple as possible. They are -
1. Any player anywhere on the ladder can challenge any other player.
2. Winner either stays in the same place or moves immediately above loser.
3. Challenger wins by default if the challenged player is not available for three club nights.
4. New players start at the bottom.
