Final Results Posted
Please review your scores and let me know if I made a mistake. I hope everyone had a good time. I sure learned a lot from all of you. I'm running a tournament next weekend so will get back to you on feedback from this tournament. My understanding is that everything went great. Thanks BRSC for letting me run the tournament. Your success is my success. Candlewood and Residence Inn Sponsors - It's only getting better. Looks like both the Men's 55's and this tournament for next year. I expect addtional players for the National 60's because of what Idaho and all it's wonderful people had to share with this years players. Jake Putnam and I have committed to a long range plan to provide the best possible service to you. Please visit Jake's Facebook and FlickR.com photo page to view photos and blogs from the tournament. I would really appreciate it if all of you completed the on line survey and gave us on outstanding rating. I'm trying to convince Theresa Bowen that our tournaments are the best. A couple tweaks in scheduling on my part and gold is in your future.

Consider changing travel plans
All of the dates and times are posted on the draw. I'm willing to negotiate to changing semi -final and consolation final matches if it's to the benefit of the players involved. I know I told players we would end on Saturday and as it turns out the events are finishing up early. I would love advise for next year on if it makes sense to move start date day rather than end of event day. I haven't looked at the seeding in the mixed and looking for two teams to fill draw of eight. Will form a seeding committee Monday afternoon from players on how the seeding should be for the mixed. A great opportunity ladies to support Robert. Then I'll make draw.

Men's and Women's Draws are Posted
Please check your day and time. First round singles starts on Sunday. Second round Singles and first round doubles starts on Monday. Mixed starts Tuesday. Deadline for mixed is Monday afternoon. I need two full teams. Will then make the draw Tuesday evening. Player party Tuesday evening.

Mixed Doubles still open for sign ups!
I've decided to keep the mixed doubles open for sign ups until Monday afternoon, Aug. 20th. You'll have an opportunity to find a partner and I'll make the draw that night. Mixed matches start Tuesday.

Change to Full Feed In Consolation from Modified Feed In for Men's Events.
I should be able to run a full feed in consolation rather than the Modified Feed In format with the courts I have available and the smaller men's singles draw. Plan on it.

Final Seeding is Posted for the Men's events
I will allow today for any additional responses but would like to move on with the process of creating draws and be done with seeding. It's looking more like a full feed in consolation format for men's events as well. Draws to be posted by August 15th. Robert Sterk 208-602-1493 robert@robertsterk.com
