MONDAY PRACTICE COURTS
I recommend LTHS as a practice site on Monday. Their coach has already assured me they will not be using the courts for practice in the morning. All courts at ATA will be available for warm up prior to the 8am doubles matches and there will likely be a few courts available between 8-9am as well.
