Playing Information


Open Play:

In general we set up sufficient tables to accommodate the number of players present. Play is not structured and can be either singles or doubles. It is highly recommended that new players not accustomed to a competitive format begin their experience with our club on Monday evenings. This will allow you the best opportunity to become acquainted with us.

Round Robin Competition:

In general we will have 4 to 6 groups of 5-6 players with matches scored as either the best two out of three or three out of five games depending on time limitations. We play on 8 tournament level tables and play in accordance with USATT rules. The groups will be populated by skill or rating levels. The one who finishes with the best record on a lower table will advance to the higher table the following week. You must be signed in by 7:00 PM in order to play.

Youth Competition:

Players under the age of 11 are required to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. The appropriateness of players under the age of 14 to play in the round robin competition is at the discretion of the Youth Director or his designee in concert with the club President.

Due to facility limitations, we must limit play to the first thirty-six players signing up.

We provide balls and have a limited supply of paddles that can be borrowed. Please wear non-marring shoes.

A Few “Do’s”

1.     Pay playing fee as appropriate.

2.     Place your name on the sign-up sheet.

3.     If a ball from another court enters your playing area, retrieve and return after your point concludes.

4.     If you notice the cardboard barrier coming down, quickly react to stabilize it and return to an upright position.

5.     Record your match results.

6.     Assist in setting up and putting away tables and barriers.

A Few “Don’ts”

1.     Don’t interrupt play on your way to your table.

2.     Do not hit the surface of the table with your paddle. Very costly damage will occur.

3.     Do not allow yourself to move the table during play.

4.     Do not sit or lean on tables.

5.     Avoid all abusive language.
