SIGNING UP FOR TWO EVENTS
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT IF YOU WERE ACCEPTED INTO THIS EVENT AND THEN WAS SELECTED TO PLAY IN ANOTHER NATIONAL EVENT YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR A REFUND FROM THIS EVENT IF YOU WITHDRAW. ONLY PLAYERS WHO CONTACTED ME BEFORE THE ENTRY DEADLINE AND GOT PERMISSION TO BE ENTERED IN BOTH EVENTS WILL RECEIVE REFUND. PLEASE READ THE RULES CONCERNING ENTERING MORE THAN ONE EVENT. USTA National Level 3 Tournaments: Multiple Entries and Selection Process Players may choose ONE of the following options, but NOT both: • OPTION 1: Enter any ONE division of TWO concurrent USTA National Level 3 Tournaments (this may be a different division in each tournament); OR • OPTION 2: Enter TWO divisions of ONE USTA National Level 3 Tournament Players may PLAY in only ONE division of ONE tournament. OPTION 1: ONE Division of TWO Concurrent Tournaments • A player seeking to enter two concurrent USTA National Level 3 Tournaments must get permission to enter as set forth in USTA Regulation IV.C.12. This requires a player to request and receive the written permission of both Tournament Committees for the concurrent entry by the time entries close. • Tournament Committees shall be required to grant permission for concurrent entry when a request is made; however, these requests are required – a Tournament Committee may not post a blanket permission for concurrent entry. • Tournament Committees will publish the selection and alternate lists no later than 2 days after entries close. • A player accepted into both tournaments shall be required to notify the tournaments no later than 5 days after entries close as to which tournament they will be playing, and the player shall be refunded their entry fee (but not the TennisLink administrative fee). Failure to withdraw by the deadline absolves the tournament from which the player is withdrawing from their obligation to refund the entry fee and will result in the assessment of 4 suspension points for withdrawing for reason other than injury, illness or personal circumstance. • As a courtesy, a player who is accepted into one tournament and not the other(s) should remove themselves from the alternate list of the other tournament(s) no later than 5 days after entries close. Failure to do so will not result in a penalty. • If a player has not been accepted into any tournament, they may remain on the alternate lists of all tournaments, but upon acceptance into one, they may not withdraw from that tournament to play in another. • Under no circumstances may a player after being accepted into one concurrent tournament withdraw and play in another. Doing so shall result in the assessment of 4 suspension points for withdrawing for reason other than injury, illness or personal circumstance.
Option 2 Procedure: TWO Divisions of ONE Tournament • When a USTA National Level 3 Tournament includes more than one age division, a player may enter up to two age divisions of that tournament. • The Tournament Committee shall select players who have entered two divisions in descending age division order: 18; 16; 14; and 12. If a player is entered in two age divisions of a USTA National Level 3 Tournament and is selected into the older division, that player shall not be eligible for selection into the younger division, even if there are openings in the draw at the time of selection or thereafter. If a player is not selected for the older division, that player is eligible for selection in the younger division and is eligible to be an alternate in the younger division but not in the older division.
