TWO DOUBLES EVENTS AND FRIDAY PLAY
The Eighth Annual NTRP tournament is now allowing players to participate in two doubles events. With the growth of the event the last few years we have seen the demand for this also grow and we will now allow players to play in either one singles and one doubles event or two doubles events. This will mean that play will need to be pushed into Friday for some of the events. We will make every effort in our scheduling to try and complete play on Saturday and Sunday only however please be aware that matches will be scheduled on Friday if needed. Thank you as always for your continued support of Tahoe Donner tournaments and we are looking forward to seeing even more players battling here this spring. See you on the courts, Ian Mindell

THIRD - FOURTH PLAYOFF FOR ALL DIVISIONS
All semifinalists that lose in that round will play one more match for third place. The Third place position is worth valuable ranking points. Please make sure when draws are posted to be aware of the potential and timing of a Third - Fourth Playoff match in your division(s). See you on the courts. Ian Mindell

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, concurs in writing, and each agrees to 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 entries for the overlapping tournaments close on different dates, approval must be received from all Tournament Committees no later than the entry closing date that occurs last. Players who enter a tournament and play it to completion, may then enter another tournament with overlapping dates without permission. If a player violates this concurrent tournament rule ranking points earned in any concurrent tournament played will not count toward ranking or the Grand Prix Points Race and the concurrent tournaments will not count toward the minimum tournament requirement to qualify for Grand Prix.
