Consolation - Check the Draw for your Match Time
There is a consolation event for teams that lose their first Match so all teams are guaranteed at least two matches. If a team loses their first match, they are automatically placed in the consolation draw with playing beginning Friday afternoon. If you played in the main draw and lost your first match please be sure to check the draw for your match time in the consolation event. It is quite likely that you will play today! You will be automatically entered in the consolation event unless you tell us that you do not want to be in the consolation draw. As a courtesy to the opponents please be sure to let us know right away if you do NOT plan to play. That allows us to notify the opponents in a timely fashion.
