Tour Features

  • Masters Cup Format Championship Tournament

The league runs three months. The first two months consist of ladder style challenge matches with the help of an automated match scheduler. The ladder is broken up into eight person groups or "tiers". During the final month every tier plays a masters cup style playoff. This includes three round robin matches for each person during this final month and possibly two more matches if you keep winning.

Tour Format
Two months of Challenge Matches in Ladder Format

The automated Tour Match Scheduler will help you find matches based on your location and time preferences. You will receive friendly emails from the match scheduler all summer long inviting you to play.

Play unlimited tennis during this period against players you choose to play. Don't settle for a league that forces you to play a certain opponent every week.

Final Tournament in Masters Cup Round Robin Format (third month)

Finish it off just like the pros in Masters cup format. Play three round robin qualifier matches. Play well and you move on to the semi final rounds.

Weekly tour Newsletters keep you current with what the competition is doing and let you know what local tournaments are coming up.

Stay Tournament Sharp
Playing competitive tennis every week will keep your game at it's peak level.

Improve your Game Fast
Playing different players each week with different styles is an excellent way to raise your game.

Flexible Scheduling and Locations
The Tour is the easiest way to set up competitive tennis matches around.

You decide how much tennis you want to play.
Once a week? Twice a week? Every other week? Away on vacation? No problem. You are able to choose when you play. To maintain your ranking you only need to play one match every two weeks. There are no hassles if you don't play, you will simply drop in the rankings a few spots.
(Tour match record 39 matches one season!)

You decide where you play.
People that challenge you try to play where it's convenient for you.

It's easy to find someone to play.
The Tour Match Scheduler Program e-mails other players who are looking to play matches at times and places convenient to you. You are under no obligation to play. Simply respond to the request if it fits your schedule.

Divisions and Levels
Divisions include Singles, Doubles, Mixed Doubles, and Doubles Flights.

Doubles Flights. This is a co-ed doubles division where you rotate partners after every four games. You don't need a doubles partner to sign up! It's a great way to meet people.

How the Rankings are Determined
Each season starts where the previous left off. New players are added to the bottom in order of sign up. We don't use any complex formulas. We keep it simple and let the large number of matches played over the summer take care of things. As the season progresses it becomes more and more difficult to move up the rankings from a big win. The maximum amount you move up with each win is adjusted each month.

First Month - Move up a maximum 30% of the rankings with each win
Second Month - Move up a maximum 20% of the rankings with each win
Note:the maximum is always at least 5 spots.

One thing that doesn't change, each match loss to a lower ranked player moves you down one spot. The final Tour tournament decides the Tour Champion.

Testimonials
I would also like to add that my experience on the tour so far has been a very pleasant one (aside from being winless in the B division so far). I never imagined I could find so many people that enjoy tennis as much as I do. Thanks for all the hard work you put into the tour to make it a success. I am excited to see it continue to grow in the years to come.

Thanks, Chris
