July and August USTA Missouri Valley Junior Section Events
The USTA Missouri Valley Junior Competition Committee (JCC) has
made the difficult decision to cancel the July 25-27 L4 USTA MV #3
and August 1-3 L3 USTA MV #1. Although the section JCC hoped to
host this tournament in 2020, the concerns regarding the health,
safety, and well-being of the players and spectators due to
COVID-19 were brought to the forefront.
While tennis remains one of the healthiest activities, the USTA
Missouri Valley section is aware that players from the 7 districts
are dealing with different elements that may impact one's ability
to travel or provide unintended advantages of residing in the
various districts. The section is fully aware that the tournament
directors and facilities that were planning on hosting the July
25-27 level 4 and August 1-3 level 3 tournaments were more than
capable of running these events safely.
Since play resumed on June 1, the section has been encouraged by
participation and the focus on safety at district tournaments. In
the best interest of the players, the JCC does not want to
jeopardize competition at the local levels by playing an event
hastily. The USTA Missouri Valley will continue to support junior
competition at the local level by encouraging players to strengthen
district events before preparing to commence section events in
September.
The section office and JCC will continue to evaluate the obstacles
surrounding COVID-19. The Missouri Valley intends on playing the
September 5-7 L4 USTA MV #4. If there are any changes to the status
of this tournament, an announcement will be made by August
18th.
LATE ENTRIES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED INTO THIS TOURNAMENT.
DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO REGISTER
Online registration is required and needs to be COMPLETED before
the entry deadline. In the case of a technical problem, contact the
USTA MV Junior Competition Program Manager at

below to be fully registered.

partner your partner's name will also appear on your
registration.
Entering Multiple Age Divisions
When entries close, a player may be entered in up to two age
divisions. The USTA Missouri Valley selects players for the singles
main draws in the following order: 18, 16, 14, 12. Unless otherwise
notified at nbortnick@movalley.usta.com, a player entered in two
divisions will be placed in the older age division should the
player qualify for both divisions. If a player is entered in two
age divisions and is selected into the older division, that player
shall not be eligible for selection into the younger division and
will be removed from the alternates list. If a player is not
selected for the older division, that player is eligible for
selection in the younger division and is eligible to be an
alternate in the younger division but not the older division. If
the player does not qualify for either division, the player will be
placed on the alternates list of the younger age division and
removed from the alternates list of the older age division as
players can only be on the alternates list for one division.
