Please check to make sure that you are paired up with the correct partner. Your partner MUST be in the same age group as you. For example, if you are playing in the Boy's 12's Singles Division, your partner can't be playing in the Boy's 14 Singles Division. Unfortunately those types of requests can't be accommodated due to the potential scheduling and match location conflicts. The doubles event is very important especially for those players who are interested in playing college tennis.

CONFIRMATION OF MATCH TIMES
Players, please remember that as per Friend At Court, the players are solely responsible for learning the time and place of their matches. Tournament desk personal will give out match times to players asked, but "The players should not rely on being told the time of their matches and should check the draw." The exception to this rule would be if we reschedule a match because a previous match rang long, or a flood washed out the road. In those types of instances the Site Director will let the players know the new time that the match will be played. In all circumstances, you should always confirm your match times against the draw.
