WEATHER REPORT SUN. 12:00noon
OK HERE IS THE DEAL FOR THE REMAINDER OF SUNDAY AND PLEASE FOLLOW CLOSELY:
1. All Doubles have been cancelled.
2. All Consolation matches have been cancelled
3. All 3/4 playoff matches have been cancelled
3. We are STILL going to attempt to finish the MAIN DRAW of the tournament. We are planning on trying to start matches around 3:00pm... If you are IN THE MAIN DRAW ONLY, please check the website AGAIN at 1:00pm because that looks like when the rain will end. If it is still raining at 1:00pm,then will be cancel the tournament. Even if it stops, there is no real way to tell WHEN the matches may go on because it is not going to be sunny to help dry to courts. We will use Top Gun and Tom Sawyer and play a third set match tiebreak if we are able to play. SO MAIN DRAW ONLY CHECK BACK AT 1:00pm....
THANKS FOR EVERYONES PATIENCE !!

WEATHER
This IS and WILL be an outdoor tournament !! There are no indoor courts available at this time of the year in the city of Louisville to play a tournament. We would NEED 10 courts available ALL DAY, UNINTERRUPTED Saturday and Sunday to complete the tournament. In case of bad weather (rain), please do not call me and say "I can get a court at Blairwood for an hour and half at 2:00pm". We appreciate the effort, but that will not help...... If we do have bad weather here is the plan:
1. ALL WEATHER UPDATES WILL BE POSTED ON THIS WEBSITE ASAP. WE WILL POST A NOTICE AROUND 6:00am SATURDAY MORNING. YOU MAY ALSO CALL THE TOURNAMENT PHONE AS LISTED ABOVE.
2. IN CASE OF RAIN, WE WILL DELAY THE MATCHES AS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO COMPLETE AS MUCH OF THE TOURNAMENT AS POSSIBLE.
3. WE WILL MAKE A DETERMINATION BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF ACTUAL RAIN (NOT THE FORECAST). I HAVE RUN TOURNAMENTS FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND BELIEVE ME, FORECASTS ARE NOT USUALLY CORRECT. ALSO A 100% CHANCE OF RAIN FOR A DAY MAY MEAN MORNING SHOWERS AND CLEAR AFTERNOON. WE DO NOT NEED 100 METEOROLOGISTS, SO PLEASE DO NOT CALL WITH YOUR OWN WEATHER FORECAST.
4. IF THERE IS ANY DOUBT IN YOUR MIND, PLEASE CHECK THE WEBSITE OR CALL !! DO NOT MAKE AN ASSUMPTION YOURSELF. IT MAY BE RAINING IN ONE PART OF THE CITY AND NOT ANOTHER.
With all that said, lets HOPE for good weather and some good tennis !!!!!!

The "Swing into Spring" Championships will be held at the TOP GUN TENNIS ACADEMY (TGA on draw) in Louisville. This will be an OUTDOOR tournament. Due to the USTA Adult Leagues at the indoor clubs, we will not be able to move any of this tournament indoors in the case of bad weather. We will also be using Tom Sawyer State Park (TS on the draw) due to the number of entries.
