Prepare for the Weather
Unfortunately, we will not have access to an ice machine, and players will need to bring their own ice. Water will be available to refill your containers. The weather will be in the 80's and 90's all weekend, so players should hydrate in advance and bring drinks, ice, and towels. If there is a health issue during a match, the player should summon an official. There's a chance of pop-up showers, but generally it should be clear. If it rains where you are, do not assume that anything is cancelled. If in doubt, call Tournament Directors Julie Wishing at 293-6543 or Laurie Edwards at 653-2147.
