Gauntlet Rec

New session

How many players
16or step to any number
4 courts
16 players ÷ 4. Everyone is on court every round, so this is the number you need — there is no version that fits fewer.
Format — what fits 16
Courts — 4

16 is the most people who can check in — not a field. 16 play at a time and everyone else is in one line.

When a court finishes

No rounds to plan — the night runs until you end it. You can change this rule at any point; it only ever decides the NEXT court to go on.

Scoring

Games are first to 11 either way, so every court finishes together and the round can turn.

Win by 2
Cap

11–10 is refused. At 15 the next point takes it, so a court can't run away with the round.

Player ranking

Strongest first, unrated last.

When & where

Venue and time are visible to the people on the roster only. Rec sessions never appear on a public profile.

You’ll build the roster next. Nothing is scheduled until you lock it.
