NEW Junior Singles Ladder

This year PTC will run a monthly singles ladder for our junior players! All players can participate as long as they can keep score and get their serve in. Players will be placed on separate "Rungs" of the ladder based on what level class they are in. 3-4 players will be on each rung. Throughout the month the players will set up matches with the other juniors on the same rung. At the end of each month the players will be moved up or down based on how they do in their matches. New players can be added at the beginning of each month. Players will be able to reserve court time for their matches. Fridays-Sundays will be encouraged. Players can sign up at the front desk.
