Rotation With 18 Players & 4 Courts
4 courts, 16 players active, 2 sitting out each round.
Games are 12 minutes timed.
At the end of each round:
Winners move up a court (split partners).
Losers move down a court (split partners).
Losers on Court 4 → rotate out to sit.
2 new sit-outs rotate back in on Court 4 in next round.
Sit-Out Fairness Rule
If you just sat out and return to Court 4 but lose again, you don’t sit again immediately.
Instead, the sit-out rotates to other players on Court 4 who haven’t sat yet.
If everyone on Court 4 has already sat, then the sit-out passes upward to Court 3 (and so on if needed).
