Polar Brrrr Nothing but Doubles (Ad)

Players; The Tournament Director has completed all rescheduling and you may now go into your draw and check your new match time(s) and site. Players should anticipate abbreviated format of play (2-all, no-ad scoring) for at least first round match play on Saturday. All Women's 3.5 Doubles moved to Lost Creek for first round matches. Winners in the W3.5D EAST draw in later rounds will remain at Lost Creek on SATURDAY ONLY. All other Women's 3.5 draws (other than EAST) for 2nd round and beyond will move back to The Courtyard. Your site director will let you know where you play after your first round match. T-shirts for Women's 3.5 Doubles can be picked up at The Courtyard. They had already been delivered to The Courtyard prior to the cancellation of play today. Any new scheduling issues must be directed to: Director@austintennis.org as soon as possible Friday evening.

Players: All matches to be played at The Courtyard on Friday evening will be rescheduled to tomorrow morning. ALL PLAYERS NEED TO RE-CHECK DRAWS FOR NEW MATCH TIMES AND POSSIBLE SITE CHANGES. THE TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR WILL NOTE THE TOURNAMENT HOMEPAGE WHEN ALL MATCHES HAVE BEEN RESCHEDULED. AFTER THE TD PUBLISHES THIS NOTE, YOU CAN THEN RE-CHECK YOUR DRAW FOR YOUR POSSIBLE NEW MATCH TIME AND/OR SITE CHANGES. This task will not be completed prior to 8:00 p.m. tonight.

In the event the tournament experiences inclement weather please follow these helpful instructions.
1. You may call the CATA office for delay updates at 443-1342. I will update CATA's voice mail if delays continue beyond the initial 2 hour window.
2. Please continually check the tournament homepage. I will update information to this website asap to provide you with any tournament delays due to inclement weather along with anticipated match time resumption.
3. No refunds will be given for matches defaulted, withdrawals 7 days prior to tournament start, or for weather related cancellations. However, we anticipate we will play this tournament to completion with some patience and persistence on everyone's part. Thanks and pray for SUNSHINE :-)

PLEASE RE-CHECK DRAWS TOURNAMENT PLAYERS: Even if we get lucky and don't experience rain, you are still asked to RE-CHECK YOUR DRAWS. I continue to receive withdrawals for injury and illness and you wouldn't want to show up unnecessarily. If I have a contact number or email address in the tournament software program, I'll do my best to contact you. However, some players have NO contact information provided. For this reason, ALL PLAYERS CONTINUE TO RE-CHECK DRAWS UP UNTIL YOUR MATCH TIME, beginning with your first round and throughout the tournament. Thanks and we'll see you at the Polar Brrr...."nothing but doubles" tournament. Come prepared to have FUN!

Mixed 4.0 players: Your event will be split into 2 flights, Red and White. Compass draws are not supported electronically with 7 teams. For this reason, one flight will consist of 4 teams, the other 3; A Mixed 4.0 playoff will determine the winners and rankings of remaining teams. For example, #1 place team in Red flight will playoff against the #1 place team in the White flight. This will determine the winner of the entire Mixed 4.0 event. However, #2 place teams etc... will play against the other flight's #2 place team to ensure the "guarantee of 3 doubles matches to all participants. The 4th place team in the flight with 4 teams (WHITE flight) will not participate in the playoff matches as they will have already played their guaranteed 3 matches within their own flight.
