LUDUS·

The competitive members club

A vetted network of founders, operators and athletes who build their network the way they build everything else — by competing. A Season of competition days. Live rankings. Squads. A black-tie Finals where a Champion is crowned. No lanyards. No lukewarm drinks.

How it works

Membership runs like a sporting year.

Four competition days, a dinner every month, a live table, and a Finals night to end the year. Turn up and compete — the friendships and the business follow on their own.

I

The Season

Four competition days a year — padel, tennis, golf, HYROX-style — handicapped, round-robin, everyone plays all day. Plus monthly curated dinners of eight.

II

The Rankings

Every member holds a live rank. Win points by competing, climbing, and bringing the right people through the gate. The Season resets every January. Fresh race, every year.

III

The Squads

Drawn at Season start — ten to twelve members, deliberately mixed by industry and ability. Your squad is your inner circle: the group chat, the accountability, the rivalry.

IV

The Finals

Black tie. The top eight contest the Championship. The Champion takes member №1 status, the honours board — and the Rudis, the engraved sword a gladiator earned for proving himself.

The Founding 100

A founding number is a cap.

When you play for England, your cap has a number on it and it's yours forever. Ludus starts the same way: one hundred founding members, one hundred numbers — selected by application and interview from founders, operators, and current and former athletes.
