IMPORTANT CONSOLATION EVENT INFORMATION
THE TOURNAMENT HAS ALWAYS GUARANTEED TWO MATCHES. THIS YEAR WE HAD CREATED A WAY TO OFFER A THIRD MATCH. IF YOU PLAYED AND WON ON THE FIRST TOURNAMENT DAY AND THEN LOST YOUR SECOND MATCH YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A NEW COMBINED CONSOLATION EVENT. UNFORTUNATELY MOTHER NAURE PUT A BIG CRIMP IN THOSE PLANS.AND WE HAD TO CANCEL THE 2ND TOURNAMENT DAY, THAT CREATED MANY PROBLEMS AND BECAUSE OF COURT AVAILABILITY AND COMMITMENTS WE CAN ONLY GUARANTEE THE TWO MATCHES. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS DISAPPOINTING TO MANY PLAYERS AND TO ABBY AND MYSEFL WHO HAVE SPENT NUMEROUS HOURS TRYING TO CREATE MORE MATCHES FOR ALL. HOPEFULLY NEXT YEAR..
