Changes from Last Year
- Play begins THURSDAY, July 29 at 8:00 am
- We are TRYING to schedule play at only TWO sites this year.
- This year's tournament is NOT scheduled during the 5th/3rd Tennis Championships. This allows us use of all the UK courts and improves parking. As a result there will not be concessions available at UK.
