EXTENDED DOUBLES DEADLINE
The doubles deadline will extend to Tuesday, August 22 at noon. This will give those who don't have a partner yet more time to find one. If you do find a partner after the singles deadline, you must email chipstearns@hotmail.com with your partner's name and the division you are playing. Remember that you must play the same doubles division as you are singles. After the doubles deadline has passed, all those that are signed up for doubles without a partner will be randomly placed with the others that do not have partners. In case of an odd number, we will pick partners on a random draw. The odd player out will not play unless an additional player is found within a couple hours. Thank you for your understanding!
