Anyone taking a SAT/PSAT exam further than 1/2 hour from the tournament site cannot be accommodated. If the SAT does not honor your requested site, advise the tournament director and you will receive a full refund as long as the tournament director receives your request before the draw is made. If you have not received confirmation from your selected SAT/PSAT site or if you have not requested accommodation from the tournament by the day the draws are made, you will not be accommodated. It is your responsibility to notify the tournament staff. The tournament is under no obligation to accept players who are taking the SAT/PSAT."

*** Important Schedules Issues!!! ***
There was a big issue with the boys 14 and boys 16 schedules as their 3rd round of play needed to added to the first Sunday schedules!!!
For the Boys 16s: the rounds 2 and 3 matches were splitted between the Mission SJ and the De Anza sites. Except for the doubles being played first in the day, each B16 player will then play at one only of the two sites for his two rounds. Start times were created to allow some of the doubles players to get to the other site on time.
For the Boys 14s: your two rounds will be at the Fremont Tennis Center.
To all: while we are now using more courts that day, this impacts everyone's schedule on Sunday, so please check the now updated posted schedules.
The schedules for the second weekend will be posted by Tuesday 10/4 so they can be compacted, taking in account the results from the first weekend.
