TTA Social Ladders - Summer 2026
TTA is happy to announce the SUMMER 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 June 15th - August 30th and will consist of the following 3 ladders:
• Men's Singles (2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0+)
• Women's Singles (2.5, 3.0, 3.5+)
This is a points based ladder with the following points awarded:
Each match participant will receive 2 point(s).
The match winner will receive 5 points.
Each set won will earn each player 1 point.
Going three sets will earn each player 2 points.
Winning in straight sets will earn a player 1 points.
There will be two winners awarded. One in the Women’s section and one in the Men’s section. To win you must have been awarded the most points. Each winner will receive a case of tennis balls!
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 $40R/$45NR. 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 before, 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.
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.
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 August 30th.
These ladders are a no-obligation, play-at-your-own-risk activity.
Please join in the fun and invite your friends!
