Game Rules

• Matches are played in one set up to 6 games.
• At 40/40, a golden point is played.
• Players switch sides after the first game and then after every two games.
• If the score is 5-5, the match continues for two more games. If the score reaches 7-5, the match ends, and the final result is recorded.
• If the score is 6-6, the match goes into a tie-break.

Tie-break Rules

• Start: The tie-break begins when the set score is 6-6.
• Serving:
  • The first server (chosen by the team) serves once from the right side.
  • The serve then switches to the opponent, who serves twice (starting from the left side).
  • After that, the serve alternates every two points between teams.
• Side Change: Players switch sides after every 6 points (e.g., at 3-3, 6-6, etc.).
• Scoring: The first team to reach 7 points with a 2-point lead wins the tie-break. If the score is 6-6, play continues until one team gains a 2-point advantage.
• Winning the Set: The team that wins the tie-break wins the set 7-6.

Additional Rules

• If there are less than 20 minutes before the third match, it is played as a super tie-break up to 10 points with a 2-point difference.
• Unfinished matches count: The team with the most games won is the winner. The same rule applies to the super tie-break. However, unfinished points (e.g., 30-15) do not count.
• Match results must be entered by one of the players in the “My Games” section of their account immediately after the match ends.

• Fun Padel Club uses a rating algorithm based on the Elo system, commonly used in chess.
• Potential Points: Before each match, teams are assigned potential points, calculated based on the combined ratings of the players and their opponents.
  • Winning against a higher-rated team earns more points than beating a lower-rated team.
  • Similarly, losing to a lower-rated team results in a greater point deduction.
• Bonuses:
  • Attacking bonuses are awarded for a win with a margin of 4 or more games.
  • Defensive bonuses are given for a loss with a margin of 2 games or less.
  • The bonus is 20% of the match’s potential points.
• Rating Updates:
  • Earned or lost points are added to the player’s rating.
  • Ratings update after the match results are submitted.
• Leaderboard:
  • Players are ranked in the leaderboard based on their rating.
  • Ratings update weekly when match results are recorded.

• A player may cancel a match and transfer the payment to a future match if they notify no later than 72 hours before the match starts. Otherwise, the payment is non-refundable.

  If a player cancels less than 24 hours before the match or does not show up, they receive a warning:

  • The court fee is non-refundable.

  • The player must reimburse the ticket cost to the three other match participants, as the match cannot take place without them.

  • Two warnings = exclusion from the current League.

  • Each player is allowed to substitute themselves with another player only twice throughout the league in case of force majeure.
