ALLOCATION OF POINTS :
- Points are only awarded to Players who are registered and have a valid Tennis Ireland PIN.
- Points are only awarded once a player wins a match.
- To receive ranking points in a singles or doubles tournament, a player must reach a round where points are available. The number of points available varies depending upon the grading/level of the tournament and the round reached.
- The best four singles results in the previous 12 month period in Seniors (Veterans) tournaments either sanctioned by Tennis Ireland and/or international tournaments sanctioned by the ITF are taken into consideration for the final singles ranking.

- At least 2 of a players best four results in each code must be within Ireland.
- If two or more players have equal points, players are ranked based on the grading of tournaments where points have been won.
- All players moving to an older age category take all their ranking points with them.
- Walkovers count as a match won. (Only after a player has won a match).
- Byes do not count as a match won.
- If a tournament is abandoned, players will receive points for the round reached up to that point.
