GREAT SPORTS PINS
In an effort to promote good behavior and sportsmanship in junior tennis, we are starting our “Great Sports” program at select junior tournaments across the state. Officials will now be able to award good behavior by presenting sportsmanship pins to juniors who exemplify exceptional sportsmanship during a match or tournament. * A player assisting an opponent who was cramping * A player who offered one of her rackets to her opponent after the opponent had broken all of her strings. * A singles match played between two young players with exemplary behavior with parents that clapped for all good shots and congratulated each other’s child on their behavior after the match.Officials may use their discretion when selecting pin recipients. They may also act on parent’s or player’s recommendations for other children.

Times are posted through to the Semi-Finals in most events. PLEASE, be sure to get your "NEXT" match times from the tournament desk.
There are several times that a match time may "DEPEND" on how a seeded player finishes or the time may have changed due to the loss of a player.
We hope the times remain the same, but please obtain your times from the tournament desk.... THANK YOU!
