ATTENTION SUNDAY PLAYERS
We expect to have a Sunday Shotgun start for 8:30 am matches. It looks like we will operate with about 40 courts on Sunday, so that means we should have some courts available for warm-up practice. Please note we cannot have players warmup next to an assigned match. We will open the tennis center at 6:30 am for those who want to guarantee warmup courts. Etowah Park and Alto Park are two local public parks that have tennis courts and may be used for warmup if courts are available. The Rome Floyd Tennis Center (Downtown) will will not open until noon on Sunday.
