Yolo Competitions
What is Yolo Boxes?
Yolo Boxes is a game system where participants play against opponents at the same level for a specific time period (one or two calendar months). At the end of the playing period, the best player in each group moves up to a stronger group, and the player who finishes in last place drops down to a weaker group. Then, a new playing period begins.

Why join the Yolo Boxes system?
- An opportunity to find new gaming partners
- An opportunity to see your progress
- An opportunity to arrange games for times that suit you
- A great reason to call a friend and go play together!
Rules
- Participation is free, courts are pre-booked, but players must pay for the courts themselves
- Games are played in a "best of five" format, meaning to win a match, you must win three games (to 11 points with a 2-point lead)
- The presence of a referee is not mandatory, but if you feel it's necessary, call a friend to help or ask the players from the previous match to help
- Men and women play in the same league
- Point system (game score and in parentheses the corresponding points for players, which the system assigns automatically): 3-0 (6-1), 3-1 (5-2), 3-2 (4-3), game does not take place (0-0), one side does not show up (4-0)
- If you cannot play on your scheduled time, simply contact your opponent to re-arrange the match. You have until the end of the month to play your matches if the pre-arranged time does not work for you.
- Boxes are made up of 4 players, so there are 3 matches to play each month. The last week of each month is free.
- The winner of the box moves up and the lowest moves down. Middle 2 players stay in the same box for the next month.

Yolo Summer League
The summer league is a fun way to still play competitive squash throughout the summer…
Each Thursday at 18:00, your team of 2 players shows up to play against another team. Players will receive handicaps based on their level, and play against the opposite number of the other team. A match between 2 players is played over 4 games to 15 points.
