Let's talk about flex
What is a flex league?
HOW YOU PLAY: We pair competitors with fairly matched opponents for each week of their league. Gladiators decide for themselves when and where to play their matches in a way that's most convenient for them—that's the flex part!
WHERE YOU PLAY: Upon registering, you'll receive a list of courts from which to select a "Home Court"(usually a public court close to your residence or work), where you intend to play half of your matches. The other half of your matches will be played "Away", generally less than a 20-minute drive from your Home Court.
