BTA CHALLENGE LEAGUE

Frequently asked questions

Rules & Regulations

  • SCHEDULING: Contacting your Opponent: Don't wait for your opponents to call you! Both teams are responsible for making contact with their opponents prior to the Scheduled two weeks. If you have made a diligent effort to both phone and email your opponent several times and still receive no response by Monday of the second week, please email BTA so that we have a record of it. If you still have received no reply by the Tuesday of the Second Week, you should take the win by Forfeit and notify BTA.

  • RE-SCHEDULING: You may reschedule your match one time provided you give your opponents at least 24 hours notice (you must receive confirmation back from your opponent that they received your rescheduling request). A rescheduled match is automatically scheduled for the Deadline/Final time on the "Deadline" date, of the corresponding match. If you give your opponents less than 24 hours notice OR need to reschedule more than once, your opponent has the option of rescheduling or recording a "win by forfeit". If both teams can’t agree on a later date to play the match, the opponent will take the win by forfeit (even if they have agreed to reschedule).

  • WARM UP: Teams have up to 10 minutes prior to the start of a match as a warm up. The warm-up is not a time to practice "winners", return of serves, etc. Players should make a good faith effort to hit balls back as close as possible to their opponent.

  • SCORING: The winning team MUST post the match score before midnight that day. 

  • COACHING: Coaching is not permitted. Spectators may not intercede in any way. The League welcomes spectators to attend matches and cheer on their family, friends and teammates. However, to ensure a positive match experience for all players, spectators must:

- Remain outside of the court area while the match is in progress.

- Not cause distractions or delay of play.

- Not intervene on behalf of a player or team i.e. making line calls etc.

Spectators that are disruptive in any way may be asked to leave by the

opposing team. Failure to leave the court area is grounds for a default.

  • TIMING: Opponent is Late: There is a 20 minute default rule. After 20 minutes, the waiting team has the option of taking the win by forfeit or waiting longer for the opponent to arrive, if and only if the opponent has called or sent a text to notify the opponent of a delay. No more than 10 minutes (total 30 min default rule w/contact).

  • WEATHER: If the temperature is above 95 degrees or below 32 degrees (Fahrenheit) before the match is started, it is the option of the players to reschedule the match. Do not force an opponent to play in temperatures that can pose a health risk.

  • Rescheduling due to weather: If weather dictates that you reschedule your match, you should do so before the "Deadline" date which would be Sunday of that week. If the match was rained out on the last day of that week, please re-schedule it no later than the following week without it interfering with the following match needed to be scheduled.
