Players By Session

  • Spring (Apr 11 - Jun 6): 157 players
  • Summer #1 (Jun 13 - Aug 8): 138 players
  • Summer #2 (Aug 8 - Oct 10): 163 players

Players By Gender

  • Female: 149 players (56.7%)
  • Male: 114 players (43.3%)

Players By Playing Level

Our league uses a proprietary algorithm that factors in results to create optimal "pairings" numbers based on a 4,000 point scale. Our more general "SOS" or Strength of Schedule number could be considered a playing level - that uses ratings 1 to 10. A loose conversion to the broadly used self-rating system would be 1 & 2 = below 3.0, 3 & 4 = 3.0, 5 & 6 = 3.5, 7 & 8 = 4.0, 9 = 4.5, 10 = 5.0. Here is a breakdown by playing level:
  • Self-Rating Below 3.0: 72 players
    • SOS Rating 1 = 31 players
    • SOS Rating 2 = 41 players
  • Self-Rating 3.0: 68 players
    • SOS Rating 3 = 26 players
    • SOS Rating 4 = 42 players
  • Self-Rating 3.5: 76 players
    • SOS Rating 5 = 48 players
    • SOS Rating 6 = 28 players
  • Self-Rating 4.0: 36 players
    • SOS Rating 7: 27 players
    • SOS Rating 8: 9 players
  • Self-Rating 4.5+: 11 players
    • SOS Rating 9: 11 players
    • SOS Rating 10: *0 players
*No players were rated 10 for the first year by design. Players achieving 2,500+ "standings" points will be rated 10 at start of future leagues.

Platform Tennis Deadline Tomorrow

0 Comments

 
Our final Summer Platform Tennis session runs from Thursday, August 15 through September 29. Deadline is Tuesday, August 2. The Fall/Winter season starts October 6. All levels are invited to participate. Competitively compatible pairings emphasized while still offering variety, time flexibility, upward mobility, guaranteed play and 2x play options. Summer Session #2 counts as part of our 24-week Spring/Summer League. Participation in the Spring or Summer #1 is not a prerequisite. Our last summer session is a great way to improve a little and be sharp for the start of the Fall/Winter season. Xenon Low Bounce Balls, beer and court time at Glendale Lyceum are included with fee.
