SUMMERTIME TOURNAMENT
It is summer. And for the summer we schedule our tournament to run all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday. DO NOT ENTER THIS TOURNAMENT IF YOU CANNOT PLAY DURING ANY OF THE HOURS OF ANY OF THOSE DAYS. You can request an avoidance but there are no guarantees. We say be creative in how you manage to get the kids to the tournament: carpool, drop them off, send them on public transportation, RideShare or any other way you wish to get them to the courts. But expect to play.
RAIN: In the summer there are better chances for rain and there are better chances for drying. With our tournaments we will do all we can to NOT cancel do to rain. We will work very hard to accomplish this. In the case of in climate weather check back to this message board to see whether or not times and schedules and court situations have changed.
