LIGHTNING ROSTER 2026

WHAT IS THE LIGHTNING ROSTER?

The Lightning Roster, is a condensed version of the regular roster, with players organised into pools of four, engaging in competitive play.

The top performing player moves up, while the lowest-ranking player moves down, ensuring a dynamic and balanced playing environment.

Each ranking is associated with a court number, with Court 1 being the highest. 

FORMAT

The format for this Lightning Roster will consist of “unpaired” doubles (ie: allocated into doubles pairings by the roster team).

Players engage in doubles matches with each player assigned to the court, recording win rates for each match.

The player with the highest overall win rate progresses, while the lowest-ranking player moves down.  

So, if there are four players, call them A, B, C, and D, the format would be AB vs CD then AC vs BD then AD vs BC, ensuring that all players get three games per week.
