Match Formats are annually subject to change and approval by the Junior Competition & Sportsmanship Committee. Refer to Friend at Court for updates.

No changes to the team line-up may be made except for illness, injury, or personal circumstances and are subject to the approval of the Tournament Committee. A player, for reason of illness, injury or personal circumstances, who does not play a match or retires from a match is eligible to play a subsequent match on the same day.
• Singles Line-up: The #1 waterfalled players in each division will play each other; the #2 waterfalled players in each division will play each other.
• Doubles Line-up: Doubles combinations and line-ups will be determined by the coach. Coaches may pair two players from different divisions as a doubles team to create the strongest line up possible. Coaches must use good faith in determining the strongest team and play that team in the #1 doubles match.
Note: for ranking purposes, all doubles matches are treated as 18 and under division matches - points will count down to any division the player has played in the preceding 12 months.

(This is a pretty table in my Tournament Manual, but this box does not like tables or spaces - I think you can determine the process from the following)

Example: From the "table" above, Boys Team 1 would have the following ordered players: Boys 18s #1 and #32, 16s #16 and #17, 14s #9 and #24, 12s #8 and #25 making it an 8 person team. Boys and Girls Teams are separate.

Each team will have a designated coach.
Team Coaches will be selected by the national Player Development Staff from among National Coaches, RTC Coaches, and USTA "faculty" coaches.
A player may receive coaching from the coach during a match, but only during a changeover or set break. Coaching must be carried out in a manner that does not distract play on adjoining courts. The coach may only enter the court on a changeover or a set break. On-court coaching must be done from the net post area where players rest on changeovers. Off-court coaching must be done from a position behind the court and outside the fence.
Parents and personal coaches are welcome to attend the tournament, but will not be involved with the tournament except as spectators.

In matches without an official on court, players are expected to follow "The Code"
If you have never read it, please do so. more info

One trainer will be on site at the Mobile Tennis Center during matches. By law, trainers are not allowed to distribute any medicine.
