Weather Update, 640 am
Poor weather predicted all day today. Even if it stops, there's a good chance of continued misting. ... We have indoor back up later today at Overland Park Racquet Club, 6800 W 91st, OPKS 66212. 913 642 6880. ... There is no indoor backup before 2 pm. The club is busy with its own activities. By about 4 pm, we will have the entire club to use. They have 14 indoor courts. I anticipate we will be playing until 10 pm or midnight. .... The schedule & format may be modified in some way. ... Although not ideal, this is the schedule we will work from. Thanks to OPRC for being so helpful! ... I will work on a revised schedule and hopefully post it by noon, hopefully sooner. IMPORTANT: If for some reason you need to drop from the main draw or consolation, please advise me before 11 am so I do not include your match(es) in the schedule. We will update you via email and TennisLink again later.

National Campus in Orlando will be given away during this
tournament. Airfare not included. Registered Players, only, are
eligible to win, so they can sharpen their competitive edge before
the National NTRP Tournaments.
NEW Self-rated tournament players: If you are a player that wants to participate in an NTRP division and you do NOT have a current NTRP rating, you will need to acquire a self-rating by Clicking the Adult Self Rate Button on the Tennislink Tournament home page. After receiving your new self-rating in Tennislink you MUST contact the tournament director of the tournament you are entering to make sure of proper placement in an appropriate NTRP division. A player may have club experience that would provide a better backround to your playing ability. Keep in mind you can always play up in a higher NTRP division, and a higher division may be more appropriate with a player’s particular experience. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
