After that we are unable to accommodate avoidance requests due to the unpredictability of match outcomes and court availability.

I WILL DO MY BEST TO HONOR YOUR AVOIDANCE REQUEST FOR THE FIRST DAY OF THE TOURNAMENT IF MADE BY THE DEADLINE.

If there is a rain delay, alternative instructions will be posted at the Tournament Desk. Play indoors will be a last resort and every effort will be made to reschedule matches outdoors if weather permits.
