How it works

How play works

No sign-up sheets. One board, one queue, games picked by level.

1 of 8

The board

Each number is a court. The four tags under it are the four people playing there.

  1. The board. Each number is a court. The four tags under it are the four people playing there.
  2. On deck. A, B and C are the next three games, in order. C is empty, so the next game goes there.
  3. Your tag. The coloured sticker shows each player’s level, so you can pick a fair game with anyone.
  4. Join the queue. Hang your tag at the end of the queue. START marks the front.
  5. Pick a game. Jane is at the front, so her tag goes up first. She picks any three players near her level, not just the next in line. Four Intermediates on deck C: a fair game.
  6. A court finishes. Court 8’s game ends. Those four tags go to the back of the queue. The A group is up next, so they’re called: “Vic, Wes, Xia and Zac, court 8!” Chip 8 moves over their tags.
  7. Everyone moves up. Everyone else moves up. Chip A goes to the next group in line. Chip B moves along too. Chip C marks the empty spot, ready for the next pick. That’s why real boards are rarely in order.
  8. Your game. Tom is at the front now, so he goes up first. He skips Ana and picks three Novices, including you. You’re on deck. No need to reach the front to play.
