Nice going players! Please see me at Tournament Desk for your Sportsmanship Award Tag.

During the tournament we will post names of the players recognized for good sportsmanship by the Officials, Tournament Staff, and via the nomination forms at the tournament desk which are available to players, parents and fans to fill out and submit for consideration. Daily sportsmanship award winners will receive bag tags on behalf of USTA NorCal. Two overall sportsmanship award winner will be recognized at tournament end (one female and one male player) with a special prize. Look for updates here during the course of the tournament as we encourage and recognize players who honor the game.


All players will be required to sign the USTA Player Oath. We will follow the USTA NorCal Zero Tolerance Guidelines which apply to anyone attending our event. Please take time to reach this important document as this outlines our expectations and consequences for everything - players, parents, coaches, fans: more info

>PLEASE NOTE: Our head official Carol Kim has had a personal emergency (5/19) and will not be available from here on out. Please email me directly with any issues or questions. Chris Moore is now the onsite head official for our event this weekend.
COMMUNICATION - Communication will be handled via email me at chrysa@sparetimeinc.com. Emails will be sent to competitors with helpful information once the Selection Process is complete. Make certain the email you have in the entry registration is correct and add my address to your book to make sure you receive my emails as time can be of the essence.
>LEVEL 2 -L2 ranking points will be awarded by USTA.
>Book your hotel room early - don't miss out on the tournament rates (deadline May12).
>DOUBLES PARTNERS - applicants need to designate their own partners before entries close. We cannot help with doubles partnering until after entries close and acceptances are processed as we do not know who will be playing at our site. This includes forwarding emails to potential partners. We will make a request 1 player at a time and not an entire list of players as this can create confusion, hard feelings and lot of unnecessary back and forth email traffic.
>SHARING CONTACT INFORMATION - USTA Legal does not allow us to share any contact information from their system with others. We can forward requests via email with your contact information requesting they contact you but that is as much as we are allowed to help you.
>NSL used for selections will be list published April 26. A special seeding list will be used dated May 10.

More helpful hints and tips to follow as the tournament draws closer and questions arise.

NOTE: I highly recommend you don't wait to make hotel reservations as the room blocks will sell out. If you feel fairly certain your player will be accepted, please don't wait! Cut-off for guaranteed rate reservations is May 12 based on availability.
