### What’s the Plan?
We’re going Round Robin style, which is just a nice way of saying you’ll keep playing and meeting new people until your arms fall off.
#### Courts Breakdown:
🏅 2 Advanced Beginner Courts (For those who want a faster-paced game)
- More consistent with serves, returns, and rallying at medium pace.
- Has improved shot placement but still struggles with control over direction, depth, or power.
🎾 1 Beginner Court (For newcomers or those preferring a relaxed pace)
- Learning court lines, scoring, and basic rules.
- Can sustain short rallies and demonstrate basic strokes but still working on consistency.
- Fresh to the game
Paddle Queue System: To keep things fair, players will place their paddles in line in box to indicate their turn in the respective court.
Rules of the Game:
- Switch It Up: After every match, you’ll get a new partner and new opponents.
- Scoring: First to 15 points, rally style (no need to keep track of who’s serving—so much simpler lah).
- Timing: Each match is capped at 15 minutes, so don’t peng san trying to win.
- Be Nice: Keep it friendly—this isn’t the SEA Games, okay?
