Elysium Winter B/G 14 Compass Showdown

Please read the information detailed in the sections below. The explanations contain just about every answer to almost every possible question that may be raised. After running tournaments for 20 years, we think we have covered just about all the bases. But, there may be some things we have missed. If that happens, please email us at the tournament directors email address listed above. We will add the info to future tournaments guidelines page. Thanks.

IMPORTANT - Player selection process is as follows: we use a 16 player compass draw format. If 16 or fewer participants sign up for a particular division, all players that have registered for that division will be accepted into that particular draw. If there are more than 16 entrants in a division, per USTA Midwest guidelines, the highest ranked 16, using the most recent published Midwest age group rankings, will be admitted into the draw. The remaining registrants will be placed on the alternate list and be called in order of ranking should any players selected withdraw due to illness or injury. If you registered and were not selected - YOU WILL NOT BE CHARGED.

Email is our preferred method of communication. Email can be done at any time of the day or night, and more importantly, leaves a definitive electronic trail. Email, due to the clarity of the written word, also tends to mitigate questions of what was stated, at what time, and by whom. If you have any questions, please email the tournament directors at the email address listed above. We monitor it constantly. Thank you.

All tournament participants get to partake in a tasty pizza party, produced by Pizza Hut, with pop provided, on Saturday night. Pizza is delivered at 6:30 PM. Siblings are welcome, within reason, to jump in, after the players have eaten. Please use a little discretion, we want to make sure the players get enough to eat first. Each player will also receive an Elysium Compass Draw tee shirt for participating.
