ENTERING CONCURRENT TOURNAMENTS
ENTERING ONE Division of TWO Concurrent Tournaments • A player seeking to enter two concurrent USTA National Level 3 Tournament 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 Comittees 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 that 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.
