General Rules

The Bergen Tennis Club website is open all year round and shall be used only to schedule matches and share results.

Matches arranged via website shall be played on public courts and those arrangements shall be posted in the Schedule section before matches begin.

The club does not take responsibility for matches arranged. It's up to members to arrange date, time, and place, and notify other members via our website.

Each match shall be played to the best of 2 sets. The player needs to win 2 sets to win the match, possible results are (2:0, 2:1). The tiebreaker shall be played when the score reaches six game     all in any set of the match. Game and set is won by the player who first wins 7 points by margin of at least 2 points. Games must continue until the margin is achieved. Possible results in tie-break are (7:0, 7:1, 7:2, 7:3, 7:4, 7:5, 8:6, 10:8, 11:9 etc.)

When match is finished and was marked as "challenge", the winner has right to post the score on the Scoreboard. The scoreboard is for statistics, the scoreboard does not create a ranking system.

Players are free to choose whomever they wish to play. There is no obligation to play any particular member - however if the scheduling player chooses "looking for a player" option from the website menu - he or she must accept any member who wishes to play this game!

Players are free to play multiple matches on the same day. If multiple matches have been played with the same member then only one match score qualifies for the scoreboard entry. If multiple matches have been played with different members then all scores qualify for the scoreboard entry.

Matches not scheduled or not played accordingly with the Schedule - cannot be entered!  All scoreboard entries not previously scheduled will be deleted.

In all matches arranged via website "The Code" - USTA guide for unofficial matches should be followed. In case of unfriendly behavior or a lack of the sportsmanship described in The Code please e-mail bergentennisclub2@gmail.com

If member gets sick, injured, or anything else makes him unavailable for the scheduled game - he or she should call his playing party and inform about his unavailability before the game begin.
