FACEBOOK DOUBLES PAGE
IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PARTNER LINED UP BY THE DEADLINE, THAT'S OKAY! I CAN STILL PAIR PLAYERS UP THROUGH THE FIRST WEEK OF NOVEMBER. PLEASE CONTINUE TO USE THE FACEBOOK DOUBLES PAGE AFTER THE DEADLINE TO TRY AND LINE UP A PARTNER. Here's the process to register on the Facebook Doubles Page: Please click on the link at the end of this message to access the ITA Fall Closed Facebook Doubles Page. Players in need of a doubles partner can use this page to contact another player about pairing up and/or post a note about being available to play. Once you're at the 2017 ITA Fall Closed Doubles Page, click on "join group" and I will add you to the group so you can start looking for a partner. Please remember that your partner must be in the same singles division that you are and that you must register for the same age group in doubles as singles. IF YOU HAVEN'T FOUND A PARTNER FOR YOUR CHILD BY FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE LIST OF DOUBLES PLAYERS ON YOUR CHILD'S COMPETITOR LIST WHO DO NOT HAVE A PARTNER AND THEN PICK THREE PLAYERS THEY'D LIKE TO PARTNER WITH.

SEEDING POLICY
Seeding for all of the Intermountain Tournaments (Intermountain Masters Series and Intermountain Championships) will be taken straight off of the current ITA Standing’s Lists, except if there is an exceptional player playing/aging up. An exceptional player is a player listed as top 100 in the lower age division based on the most current national standings list. This exceptional player will be considered for seeding. If this player or multiple players that meet this criteria do get seeded, they will take the last seeds in the seeding group (exceptional players cannot make up more than 25% of the seeds within a draw). DOUBLES SEEDS will be taken directly from the current ITA Individual Doubles Standings Lists. Consideration for seeding will be given for exceptional doubles teams, which are teams comprised of players who are ranked in the top 100 of the Combined National Standings in the lower age group.
