Terms of Service

Last updated: March 2026

1What Match Point Is

  • • Match Point is a free, community-run tennis ladder for players in Ahmedabad, Gujarat
  • • We're not a company or a business — just folks who love tennis and wanted a better way to organize matches
  • • We provide the platform to track rankings, challenges, and results — you bring the racquet and the competitive spirit
  • • There's no fee to join, no premium tier, no catch. It's free because we built it for ourselves too

2Your Account

  • • One account per person — no duplicates, no alt accounts
  • • You're responsible for keeping your login credentials secure. If someone else uses your account, that's on you
  • • Keep your profile info accurate — your name, USTA rating, and contact details should reflect reality
  • • You must be at least 18 years old to create an account

3Fair Play

  • • Be honest about your USTA rating — sandbagging ruins it for everyone
  • • Report match scores accurately and promptly after playing
  • • Treat your opponents with respect, on and off the court
  • • Don't manipulate the system — no colluding on results, no intentional tanking, no gaming the rankings
  • • If something feels off about a result, use the dispute process instead of taking matters into your own hands

4Content You Submit

  • • When you submit match scores, profile info, or feedback, that content belongs to you
  • • By posting it on Match Point, you give us permission to display it on the platform — things like your name on the ladder, match history, and rankings
  • • We won't sell your content or use it for anything outside of running the ladder
  • • Don't submit anything offensive, misleading, or that violates someone else's rights

5What We're Not Responsible For

  • • Injuries that happen during matches — tennis is physical, and you play at your own risk
  • • Scheduling conflicts between players — we give you the tools, but coordinating is up to you
  • • Court availability or conditions at any facility — we don't own or operate any courts
  • • Disputes between players that go beyond match scores
  • • By participating, you acknowledge these risks. For full details, refer to the liability waiver you accepted during sign-up

6Account Removal

  • • We reserve the right to suspend or remove any account at our discretion
  • • Reasons include but aren't limited to: unsportsmanlike behavior, harassment, dishonest score reporting, or abuse of the platform
  • • If your account is removed, your ranking and match history may be deleted
  • • You can also delete your own account at any time — no hard feelings

7The Platform

  • • Match Point is provided "as is" — we do our best to keep things running smoothly, but we can't promise 100% uptime
  • • We may update, modify, or temporarily take down the platform for maintenance without prior notice
  • • We're not liable for any data loss, though we do our best to keep everything backed up
  • • Features may change over time as we improve the platform based on community feedback

8Governing Law

  • • These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Gujarat, India
  • • Any disputes arising from the use of Match Point will be resolved under Gujarat jurisdiction

9Changes to These Terms

  • • We may update these terms from time to time as the platform evolves
  • • When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page
  • • Continued use of Match Point after changes means you accept the updated terms
  • • If we make a major change, we'll do our best to give you a heads-up
