League Format

1. Schedule & Seasons

The Friday League operates across three annual seasons (approximately 16 weeks each):

• Fall: September – December
• Winter: January – April
• Spring/Summer: May – August

2. Match Times & Capacity

• Time Slots: Matches are held from 7:00–9:00 PM and 9:00–11:00 PM.
• Scheduling: The organizer will rotate teams between early and late time slots to ensure a balanced schedule for all participants.
• League Size: The league is capped at a maximum of 44 teams.

3. Match Play & Scoring

• Nightly Play: Teams play two matches per night.
• Match Format: Each match is Best 2-of-3 sets.
  • Sets 1 & 2: Played to 25 points (capped at 27).
  • Set 3 (if needed): Played to 15 points (no cap).
• Self-Officiating: Matches are self-refereed. If teams cannot agree on a call, the point is replayed (reserve).

4. Time Limit & End-of-Slot Protocol

An audible signal will sound at the end of the designated 2-hour time slot.

• Unfinished Sets: The team with the most points when the signal sounds wins the set. If the score is tied, teams play one final “golden point” to determine the winner.
• Third Set Requirement: To win a third set after the signal sounds, a team must have scored at least 5 points. If neither team has reached 5 points, the match is recorded as a tie.

5. Tiered Movement

At the end of each tiering period, teams will move divisions based on total points:

• Promotion: The top 3 teams in each division move up one tier.
• Relegation: The bottom 3 teams in each division move down one tier.
