Matches must be played within the week (7 day timeframe).  If players have a scheduling conflict within the week, a request to move the match in to the following week may be submitted to the league director (Activates Coordinator) or clubs General Manager.  Players who flex their game schedules for that week will be responsible to reserve their own court for game play.
