Signing Up for Two Events/Midwest Suspension Point System USTA/Midwest Section Suspension Point System The USTA Code of Conduct and Suspension Point System is in effect. You are expected to play the entire event as scheduled. The USTA/Midwest Section Junior Competition Committee has adopted a new Suspension Point System. All players will be given FIVE (5) suspension points for entering two or more tournaments that take place at the same time, in whole or in part, unless each Tournament Committee involved agrees with the multiple entries in writing. This applies to all players who signed up for the tournament including alternates.
