  • Shorter games (to 9, or timed) keep the line moving while three are sitting.
  • 12 players would fill 3 courts exactly: if someone is on the fence about coming, invite them.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a 11-player round robin take?

11 rounds of 15 minutes is about 2 hours 45 minutes, plus changeovers between rounds.

Can 11 players play on 3 courts?

Not all at once: 3 courts need 12 players. With 11, use 2 courts and rotate the sit-outs, or play one court as singles if two of your group want it. Singles games are outside the printed chart.
