How does it work?

The SSL lists squash members according to the latest regional ranking, which for this case we take into consideration the final ranking of the NSA Squash League of the season. Players may move up the ladder by challenging and beating those listed above them. If you successfully challenge another member (i.e. you win), then you move up to your opponents’ position on the ladder, and your opponent will fall by one place. If you are unsuccessful (you lose), then both players stay in the same places as before.

Who can I challenge?

Players already on the ladder can only challenge others who are up to 5 places above them, and therefore can be challenged by players up to 5 places below them. New entrants may challenge any available (not challenged) player they like and in case of a win then the new entrant will enter the Ladder by the next update. In a different case, the new entrant may challenge other players in lower positions.

How can I challenge a player?

A player may challenge an opponent either by sending a direct email to him and copying Nicosia Squash Association or by sending a text message to the player and NSA (99663970) as well. Upon NSA’s acknowledgment, the challenge is then considered to be valid!

How long do I have to arrange and play my game?

A challenge must be played and results to be reported not later than the following Saturday of a challenge. Players may challenge more frequently if their schedule allows them to do so!

When can I play my match?

Players should make their own arrangements through Skedda, according to NSA court regulations, and report their results by the deadline. If the person challenged fails to make the match within the week then it's considered a loss.
