Team Selection
Updated selection procedure for 2024-25 season:
-
All club members will be invited to the selection meeting, with the selection committee being made up exclusively of the attendees.
-
Members not attending may submit suggestions and recommendations to the selection committee, but rankings and team selections will be made by the selection committee and their decision will be final.
-
Men's team ranking and team selections will be determined by the male selection committee members, Ladies' team ranking and team selections by the female members (assuming rule 4 is met), and Mixed by all members together.
-
Ranking and selection requires at least three people. If there are insufficient male or female selection committee members present, then selection will be carried out by the whole committee.
-
Input from male selection committee members may be sought during Ladies' ranking and team selection, and vice versa, at the discretion of those in the selecting group.
-
The primary data source for ranking of existing members will be previous league performance, but the selection committee is free to apply judgement to this and to rank new members as they see fit.
-
Team selection will be based on ranking, as required by league rules.
-
If a consensus cannot be reached on any ranking or team selection issues, those issues will be settled by "king/queen of the court" style play-offs between the relevant pairs of players, with other members of the teams in question as partners.
