The Board has
created this section for frequently-asked questions. We hope
this information will help to clarify rules and explain how to
handle situations that occur on the court.

question about rules on the court? Email Dot Osborne at
timdot@comcast.net Be sure you include LCWTL in the
subject line. Example: LCWTL - Question on Player Touching the
Net. Dot will respond to your
email and include it in Court Chatter.

1. add your rating (to 3 decimal points)
to your partners as of that date (that is why it is important to enter
matches with the correct match date)
2. add the ratings of your 2 opponents
3. if your rating is higher than your
opponents, then there is a formula based on how much higher your rating
is than your opponents that is calculated. The result of the calculation
is a number of games.
4. This is the number of games that you
must beat the opponents by in order for your rating to go up. (For
example it might be a range of 3-6 games)
5. So therefore, if you were to beat your opponents by
6 games, there would be no change in anyone's rating.
6. If you were to
beat your opponents by 7 games, then you and your partner's ratings
would go up.
7. If you only beat your opponents by 2 games (7-6, 7-6)
then your opponents ratings would go up and yours would go down.
8. The court that you play on (1-4) does
not enter into the calculation

matches, please check the front page of the web site and request one.
Player Match History Note:
The points column
1 means that your rating went down - did not beat the expected spread
2 means that your rating stayed the same
3 means that your rating went up - beat the expected spread
