Scorecards should be picked up at the front desk upon announcement of arrival and submitted back to the front desk upon match completion.

2) Reservation Rights/Scheduling Matches

a) As league members, you are allowed to schedule ONLY LEAGUE MATCHES as soon as you and your opponent can settle on a common date and time to play. This is a right extended only to league players. To ensure the time slots’ availability please make your reservations prior to the 24 hour rule extended to all Joseph T. St. Lawrence Center members so you are only competing with other league members for your preferred time slot. You can schedule up to two matches a week if you fall behind or need to keep up in the schedule because of any reason (a makeup week may also be worked into the end of the season if deemed necessary). ANYONE WHO MISUSES THIS PRIVILEDGE WILL BE SUSPENDED FROM FUTURE LEAGUES!

b) You are assigned an opponent a week. Schedules/Contacts have been emailed to all and can be found on the league website: www.leaguelineup.com/rrl. Using contacts supplied, find common dates and times amongst the two of you to play match. Call 845-753-2324 to schedule your match using privileges explained above. Any scheduling conflicts should be reported to Mike Leslie (lesliem@ramapo.org) so he can provide assistance/make ruling.
