The Monkland Tennis FLEX ladder was introduced to allow new members to meet players of their own level. The players sign up giving their availabilities for the week in both singles and doubles (if they wish). They then receive, by email, a schedule for a match with players of their own level, since a ranking system is established for each player. The weekly scores are tabulated and player rankings are constantly adjusted to ensure that levels of players are appropriate. Most importantly, it is a fun way to meet new people and to participate in the Monkland Tennis Club community.
