Fog delay - FOR LTC ONLY
Hi, the fog rolled in the the LTC after we put all the 8a matches on. By 830a the courts wer unplayable. All matches originally scheduled for 930a to 12p are delayed 1 hour from their original start times. All 1230p and later matches are not delayed at all. We will not update this message again unless the fog rolls in and luckily it is lifting now and hopefully we will be dry the rest of the day. The forecast is for dry conditions for the rest of the day! thanks for your patience during the delays! Again, this delay is only for the LTC and not SMC!

Selections for the tournament
Attention all players! We will post the list of players that made the tournament by Friday the 18th at about 8p. It looks like draws will all be full to the 32 limit in every division. This is one of the First Championships held in the Bay Area and we are going to do our best to provide a Fun tournament at some great Facilities!!! We will be posting the draws By Tuesday night next week but we may post earlier on Monday. Please make sure to check your venue and address for where you will play. We will be using 3 sites. If you are assigned Blackhawk Sports Complex then the password for the 26th is snow and the password for the 27th and 28th is Apple. Make sure to bring your own portable chair for viewing as some courts do not have bleacheers. We will most likely be using the Blackhawk stadium court for most of the semis and finals!!! There will be snacks provided at the tournament sites along with ice for injuries. There are no restaurants at the venues so you must plan on leaving the site for lunch. The front desk attendant at each venue will be able to direct you to restaurants and I will provide a list of places that we recommend. Congratulations if you made the draw and good luck next time if you didnt make the cut this time!!! We look forward to great weather and no rain hopefully!!!!!
