THE TENNIS CLUB AT SPRINGHURST PARKING
The Tennis Club at Springhurst is undergoing a major construction project. We have rebuilt our parking lot and it is currently not in use. We are using the ADDITIONAL PARKING lot at Republic Bank, located adjacent to the club. From Simcoe Lane take the second Republic Bank entrance and go straight to the back of the lot. Please follow the signs to park in the ADDITIONAL PARKING lot of Republic Bank (there is the Top Gun/Springhurst van pointing the way). This takes you behind The Tennis Club at Springhurst. Walk towards the club and you can enter the club from the rear entrance door by following the short path from the lot. Thanks

DRAWS
Draws are now posted !! It is a VERY important that you read and know the following information:
1. We are using 5 sites for this tournament. Site Abbreviations are listed below. It is the players responsibility to report to the appropriate site at the correct time. We cannot help you if you show up at the wrong site or the wrong time. We DO NOT change the website times WITHOUT notifying and getting confirmation from the players so IF you show up at the wrong site or time, it is your fault.
2. Louisville, Kentucky is on EASTERN TIME.
3. Doubles start first on Saturday and is an 8 game pro set and typically takes 45 minutes. That is WHY you will see so many doubles matches back to back. We will play about 60 doubles matches in 3 hours on Saturday so we dont have time for tardiness.
4. If you are playing a different division in singles and doubles, you may have "back to back" matches at different sites. We will be aware of those that are due at another site BUT be ready to drive as soon as you are off the court.
5. Since this is a FULL FEED-IN SINGLES & DOUBLES INDOOR tournament, we will play matches late in the evening, early in the morning, and later in the day on Monday. We cannot change your match time on Monday as we have a FULL slate of matches. We realize that once you make it to Monday you want to get home, but we have to work with the courts we have. Just remember you WILL NOT be sitting through rain or snow delays.
6. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE !! We are pleased to have you in the tournament and have a wonderful HOLIDAY SEASON !!
