RULES FOR CLUB TOURNAMENTS

Player availability helps make the tournament run smoother and on time.

  1. Tournament starting time is 5:15 pm. There will be a 30 minute grace period before default.  Participants may play before the allotted time by mutual agreement.
  2. Players should expect to be available to play on consecutive days.  However, if a player cannot play on the scheduled day, they have 48 hrs to complete their match.  If the match is not completed within the allotted time both players will be defaulted.  This stipulation will only apply to the early rounds (rounds 1-4 or as determined by participation.).  The remaining rounds, quarterfinals, semi-finals, finals, will be played on consecutive days with no exceptions.
  3. All matches are governed by USTA rules.
  4. All matches are 2 out of 3 sets.
  5. Participants supply balls for the match with the losing individual/team giving their balls to the winners for the next match. The club supplies the balls for the finals.
  6. Court priority will be given to tournament play.
  7. Winners and finalists will receive a cash award.
  8. All matches must be played before the next round.
  9. Winners please record the match score neatly on the draw sheet.
