Updated-Please recheck first match times
I remade the Boys 12s and 14s singles draws due to error I found this morning. This may have caused your original start time to change even in other draws. Please reconfirm your times to make sure you arrive on time.
In seeding the tournament, we used the rankings as of October 1st. Thank you for your patience.

Waterfall rules
Waterfall System
In 2013, all North Carolina Level 3 Tournaments will adopt the “waterfall system”. Taking cost and school
day factors into account, this allows tournaments to be completed in just two days and provides players
with the opportunity to earn more ranking points. Each division that has 24 or more players will be split
into two separate draws. Players will then be "waterfalled" into two balanced draws based on the
selection lists in the following order:
Red: 1,4,5,8,9,12,13,16,17,20,21,24,25,28,29,32.
White: 2,3,6,7,10,11,14,15,18,19,22,23,26,27,30,31.
Selections will be made using the most up to date NC Standings. Seeds will be determined using NCTA
Seeding Criteria after the waterfall is done. The format is FIC (Feed-In Consolation through QF). All
matches will play a 10-point match tiebreaker instead of a full 3rd set. There will be a playoff for 3rd and
4th place. Consolation finals will NOT be played out. Both players who reach the finals of consolation
will receive the same number of ranking points.
Singles play will not begin before Saturday at 8am.
