TTA Social Ladders - Spring 2024
TTA is happy to announce the Spring Tennis Ladders! Login to TennisRungs and create a challenge or proposal and enjoy playing your favorite sport and meeting other tennis fans! The ladders will run February 19th - May 26th and will consist of the following 5 ladders:
• Men's Singles (All Levels)
• Women's Singles (All Levels)
• Men's Doubles (All Levels)
• Women's Doubles (All Levels)
• Mixed Doubles (All Levels)
NEW: To help offset the costs of the ladder software, TTA is asking that ladder participants have a TTA membership. If you are not a TTA member, go to https://thorntontennis.com/sign-up/ to pay the yearly fee of $30. Paying the fee allows you to play in unlimited ladders for the calendar year (spring, summer, fall and winter ladders). In addition, you will have access to all TTA benefits (league play if space allows, socials throughout the year, discounted pricing for TTA tennis tournament, drills, ball machine use, etc).
We will be using the TennisRungs program again this year. If you have already used this application then you know the drill! If not please follow the instructions below. The mobile app allows easy access to the ladders as well!.
To sign up for a ladder:
Returning players:
• If you played in the ladder last fall, your TennisRungs account is still active.
• Login to TennisRungs (website or mobile app) and click Join a Ladder to see available ladders.
New players:
• You must first create your TennisRungs account. To get started, click on this link: online registration form
• Complete the online registration form.
• Login to TennisRungs and click Join a Ladder to see available ladders.
Players can do the following:
• Propose a match: specify a date, time, location (optional). Any player can accept that proposal if the date/time works for them.
• Challenge a specific player/team: If the challenge is accepted, set up a date, time and location that works for all players.
Doubles Players:
• If you try to join a doubles ladder and you do not see your partner, it is because your partner has not created their TennisRungs account. Once your partner creates their account, they will be able to choose you as their partner and your team will be added to the ladder.
• If you don’t have a partner, please contact the ladder coordinators at ladder@thorntontennis.com for help in finding a partner. Please do not choose a name at random from the list.
Once you have joined a ladder, a list of rules will be displayed ... read them to familiarize yourself with how the ladder works. The software will "manage" the ladder based on these rules.
Helpful tip: Although you can access TennisRungs via the website, most players found the mobile app easier to use. The app is available on iOS and Android.
Starting February 19th, you can propose a match or issue a challenge. But you don't have to wait to sign up ... create your account and join the ladder now! You'll be ready to propose a match or issue a challenge on February 19th!
Players can join a ladder at any time even after it has started.
All matches must be completed and scores entered by end of day on May 26th.
These ladders are a no-obligation, play-at-your-own-risk activity..
Please join in the fun and invite your friends!
