ALERT: BARRISTERS BALL UPDATE
Dear Parents,
The most challenging of all difficulties during a tournament is RAIN.
Thursday it rained. Saturday is forecasted to rain ALL DAY.
As tournament organizers we had to decide how to get back on schedule today, and how to finish by Sunday.
The only way to get back on schedule today was by doing a pro set format with no ad scoring. As of tonight we will be back on schedule. The Saturday times are now on the web site. Please go and see your Saturday match time.
However, if it does in fact rain tomorrow like the forecast says please check the web site in the morning for an update. If there is none come as scheduled.
We are extremely sorry for this weather and the very inconvenient changes in the draw due to the rain. We also appreciate the tournament staff William Elmore and Mark Saperstein for staying up until 3am Friday morning to help make it all work. Rain delays are no fun for anyone but they are doing their best to minimize the inconvenience.
We are discussing ideas on how to finish the tournament on time and hope to do so.
Thank you very much for supporting the tournament, in turn the Marty Hennessy Inspiring Children Foundation.
Trent Alenik Executive Director www.InspiringChildren.net
