Rhythm for the club
Players play every week. The ladder gives the season structure without the admin having to do anything week after week.
A reason to come back
Every player has their own position and wants to climb. That is the motivation to keep playing.
Fits every level
Several levels at once: men A and B, women, mixed. Each group gets its own ladder.
