Ok Wackers.
Here is the run down. Players may challenge a player up to two spots above them on the ladder. The challenge must be played within 4 weeks of request. Should the higher ranked player not commit to the match then the challenger will leap frog over him on the ladder. Matches to be played at Latham at an appropriate time, Edwardo Roubles will supply Wacker Balls.
Here is the ladder, guys please note that we have had to use our judgement and had to start somewhere so we would be delighted for you to prove us wrong and work your way up the ladder. Matches should be an advantage or professional set. We have included only current active Wackers, not those in excile or hibernation, please reply if you wish to be added to the list. You may put down a challenge via this thread or at the clubhouse.
1. THE YUPPIE 2. MUFF DIVER 3. MASTER BLASTER 4. TINTO 5. ABS OF STEEL 6. FROG LEGS 7. MAN MOUNTAIN 8. THE THUNDERBOLT 9. THE SLAMMER 10. BOOM BOOM BRETT 11. HAGGIS 12. NOTRE DAMN 13. SILVER FERN 14. THE BALL TOSS 15. ARTFUL DODGER 16. BRANDY ALEXANDER 17. ORDER IN THE COURT 18. SHORT BLACK 19. RAINMAN 20. EDWARDO ROUBLES 21. TEE VEE 22. THE ROOSTER 23. THE ROAMER 24. SO COOL 25. WACKO JACKO 26.

Fantastic idea! Always ready for a challenge! Didn't get it - one set or best of three? In any case - according to the rules I've got nothing to loose even if I loose, so I'll challenge Wacko Jacko. Preferences - Mon night

Great idea, I'm delighted to accept my first challenge and am looking forward to it with bated breath. Caprioska, I've sent you an email, let me know, I'm very available at the moment as the Mrs is away.

Rain Man, I am ready, preferably on the weekend after 10am, but I'd like to have a chance to challenge Brandy first.

Under the Wackers Challenger Rules, Roubles must play Rainman before being able to challenge Brandy, as Rainman challenged Roubles first.
If Roubles is successful, Brandy is more than happy to face Roubles.
In the interim, Brandy hereby challenges Swiss Cheese to a match.

Although I'm officially retired from Singles Tennis, due to my advanced age and weight! I'm more then happy to sweat it out with Brandy either 2.12 or 9.12 @ after 11am @ Wackers HQ, Ciao SC (Is that 3 or 5 sets WB?)

Sorry WB, forgot to read the rules, just noticed it's only for one set.

What a great idea it is! Look at the activity! Just three days after the posting and it's one the most active threads!
I believe Wacko Jacko and I will play the very first challenge match in wackers history tomorrow. What exactly a professional set is? Is't first to nine tie-break set?

Yes Mr Caprioska, you are spot on.
Good luck to all combatants.

Sir Tinto has now leaped Frogged Frog Legs into 4th spot.
Being a top 4 this now qualifies him for automatic selection into Wacker tournaments around the world.

Tee Vee has leap frogged The Rooster after an impressive 9/6 victory.
He now throws down the challenge to Short Black
