To challenge a player on this Ladder: A player on the existing ladder may only challenge 1 or 2 spots in front. A player who is not currently on the ladder must start at any of the last 5 spots and work their way up. Phone numbers are included with the results to make it easy to contact the ladder players. After a Challenge is played, please contact Nick Chico with the results @ (562) 945-1318.

Challenge Rules: If a challenger loses to player defending his spot on the ladder, the challenger must wait three weeks until he can challenge that player again. If a challenger wins the match, the losing player must wait two weeks to challenge to try and get his spot back. However either player may challenge another spot on the ladder anytime.

The challenge format will be best of three sets, regular scoring. After making a challenge to a player defending his spot on the ladder, a challenger must give the defending player two weeks to commit to a match. If the defending player refuses or cannot commit, the defending player will forfeit the match and the challenger will automatically move to that spot on the ladder.
