Check In
Please check in 30 minutes before your match is scheduled to begin.
If there are open courts, and both opponents have checked in, then
we can put you on early!
Saturday Start
We have decided to have matches begin Saturday morning at 8:00am
instead of Friday. Hopefully this will help some players coming in
from out of town. Everyone should expect to play at least 3 singles
matches and at least 1 doubles match if they are entered in
doubles.
Doubles Entries
The doubles draws will be made on Friday before the start of the
tournament. If you would like to enter doubles after the
registration deadline, please email me. Same for partner
requests.
Remember, this tournament is open to all Mississippi residents, and
each draw will be the top 16 ranked players that apply for the
tournament. With all that is going on this upcoming weekend, we
have space for many more players! That means this tournament is
great for those looking for more ranking points, especially those
who have recently moved up into a new age group! Sign up
today!
