Member Rankings

The ladder is provided as a service to the Wanderers squash community. It is intended to encourage friendly competition and aid players in finding partners at their approximate level of skill. It may also be used by the Wanderers squash comittee to determine seeding for tournaments and leagues. We try to keep the rules as simple as possible.
