This is a four day Monday through Thursday event. If we do not
finish by Thursday due to bad weather or another reason, we have
Friday as a backup to finish play. If we have rain, unplayable
grass court conditions or scheduling conflicts, we may have to play
matches on outdoor or indoor hard courts or clay courts. Three
indoor courts at ITHOF are available as backup.
Players, we appreciate your understanding that at the end of our
outdoor season in September, the condition of the grass baselines
and certain other positions on court will show the wear and tear of
a busy season of play on the Hall of Fame courts.
Singles draws will be limited to 16 players and doubles draws will
be limited to 8 teams. If the number of applicants registered by
the deadline in an event exceeds the limit the tournament committee
will select players and teams per adult tournament regulation
I.B.1. If there are insufficient registrants in any event,
registrants may be requested to play in a different division.
No refunds will be provided after the draw is posted. Any refunds
provided will not include the TennisLink registration fees.
Format for main draw matches will be regular scoring and best of
three full sets. Consolation matches will be regular scoring and
best of three sets with a 10 Point Match Tiebreak in lieu of a 3rd
set.In case of inclement weather other abbreviated formats may be
used, and severe weather may lead to cancellation of consolation
matches.
All singles matches will use singles sticks.
There will be playoffs for 3rd and 4th places, depending on the
size of the draw.
