Important Information
Our goal is to complete the tournament in the first weekend, if possible. The earlist Friday matches would be 4pm. We will only use Friday if the number of entrants is greater than 16 in any event. The Tournament Desk will be located in the lounge area of the clubhouse. Parking is easily accessible and near the clubhouse. Please plan on showing up 1/2 hour before your scheduled match time. There will be no practice courts available. Please plan on warming up elsewhere. Cal State East Bay does have courts where you can warm up and they are right across the street from us. Doubles Players- please sign up with your partners. If there are any match time changes, they will be posted on-line and you will receive a phone call with this information (provided we have your phone number or email).

Concurrent Tournament Rule
A player shall not be entered at the time entries close in two or more USTA sanctioned tournaments scheduled to take place at the same time, in whole or in part, unless each Tournament Committee involved understands the situation and concurs in writing. Players may play in concurrent tournaments provided those tournaments involved are advised of the conflict by the player prior to entry, and agree in writing to accept such concurrent entries and accommodate the player's schedule. The final decision rests with each tournament committee. If one tournament agrees to accept concurrent entries and accommodate the player's schedule but the concurrent tournament does not, the player may not enter both. If the player violates the rule against entering concurrent tournaments, such tournaments will not count toward ranking or Grand Prix points.

Avoidance Requests
Due to scheduling difficulties we cannot accomodate schedule requests. If you cannot play throughout the tournament, please do not register. League matches are not an appropriate schedule request. Once entries are closed, refunds will not be granted if you inform us that you cannot play at a certain time.
|
Withdrawal Information
If you are not able to play in the tournament and entries are still open, you must withdraw online and your credit card will be credited without the Tennis Link registration fee. If you must withdraw after entries close, you must do it before draws are posted to receive a refund. Refunds will be sent after the completion of the tournament.

Lunch Provided Sat, June 2nd

Parking
Parking will be a problem. Please plan to show up early. You can park in any guest spots around the City View Apartment Complex too.

Tournament Director Selection Process
Frankly, very little for the players. We use this process because it makes it easier to not have to refund money should a draw not be big enough to hold. You will receive confirmation when you register that your credit card has been charged $0, this is because you are not charged until entries close and we process your entries. Do not be alarmed, we have yet to have to keep anyone out of a tournament because draws are too big! Again, this is basically just an administrative tool. Once we process entries, you will receive an automated email from Tennis Link. It will say the following... 1. You were selected and charged. 2. You were selected but there was a problem charging you. This usually is an expired card issue. Email jbeardslee@essexpropertytrust.com asap to arrange payment by check. 3. You were not selected- The only players that were not selected into the draw are players who registered for events without significant entries.
