IMPORTANT NOTICE
The rain last Friday, Saturday, & Sunday made it impossible to play The Rawls Creek Adult Spring Championship during the scheduled Sanction Period. The Rawls Creek Tournament Committee has decided to reschedule the matches and play the tournament Tuesday, March 3 thru Saturday, March 6th because of our obligation to sponsors, participants, and The Club at Rawls Creek. Due to a ruling by SCTA, players will not receive USTA ranking points for this tournament because play is not within the sanctioning dates of the tournament. We will gladly return the entry fee to anyone that would like to withdraw from the tournament. We will have our 2nd players party on Friday, March 6th at 6:30PM. Food will be furnished by Carolina Ale House.
Thanks to all the players and their great attitudes and cooperation during the horrible weather conditions and the rescheudling process.
