Notes
Tournament Headquarters:
Scoring: 2 out of 3 sets with a 10 point match tiebreaker in
lieu of the 3rd set, no ad scoring
REGISTRATION: Players may register at first match playing site 30
minutes prior to start of match.
Excessive Overrule Guideline: The USTA Texas Officials Committee
along with the Competitive Department has established a guideline
in reference to excessive overrules as clarified in the Friend at
Court. This guideline states "Once a player has been overruled for
a second time in a match, they will be cautioned that after another
overrule, they will be penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct under
the point penalty system."
ATTENTION ALL SPECTATORS(INCLUDES PARENTS, COACHES, RELATIVES,
FRIENDS, ETC.)In an effort to promote a more enjoyable and fair
experience for all, the following policy is in immediate force and
effect, and shall be diligently and stringently enforced. USTA
Texas has implemented a "ZERO TOLERANCE" policy for improper
behavior.1. Any attempt by a spectator to speak to the official in
an abusive or disrespectful manner regarding a line call or other
ruling during match play shall be cause for immediate removal from
the playing area and, if warranted, from the premises.• 2. Any
spectator behavior deemed unacceptable towards a player, other
spectator or staff member shall be cause for immediate removal from
the playing area or the entire premises. If said behavior is
directed towards a player, either before, during or after a
tournament, it shall result in an automatic and immediate
suspension of that spectator's right to attend USTA Texas
tournaments, for a period of time to be determined by the USTA
Texas Discipline and Grievance Committee.3. Refusal to adhere to a
removal request shall trigger immediate enforcement of the point
penalty system against the player with whom the spectator is
involved (per point penalty system regulations), including possible
immediate default from the tournament.4. The On-Site Official is
the SOLE judge regarding unacceptable behavior.

Inappropriate umpire/spectator communication, whether it be about a ruling or any other facet of a tennis event is prohibited while a match is in progress. Being a parent, coach, etc. does not endow special privileges. With the only exception of the right to remove their own child from competition at any time, a parent or coach is merely a spectator.
