Notes
UPDATE AS OF TUE, 11/20 @ 3:00 PM: The draws are now posted
so please check for your match times/dates. For the G12, B12 and
B14 divisions, because we indicated these divisions would be done
in 2 days, the Back Draw Finals will not be played unless both
players who make the Back Draw Finals want to play that match on
Saturday (we can discuss potential available times on Saturday if
both players want to play this match). For the BG10U Green Dot
divisions, some Back Draw matches scheduled for Friday night at
7:30 PM might not take place, based upon the results of matches
earlier in the afternoon for players who received a bye in their
first round match. If you should have any questions, feel free to
contact the Tournament Director, Steve Haas, at 630-660-1943. We
look forward to seeing you at the tournament!
Meredith Pollack will act as referee. USTA Umpires will not be used
for this event.

Contact Info: Please note we use the contact info you
provided TennisLink. Some of the contact info in the database
connects us to defunct emails and non-working phone numbers. Please
check that your contact info is up-to-date so that we may reach you
if need be...especially should a 1st round match default and we are
attempting to reach you before you make a long drive.
We encourage you to use the new Communication Center
feature. As this event is Tournament Director Selection
Process, you will be given this option once we process player
registrations immediately after entries close. For information on
how to select this feature visit TennisLink:

In order for an event to run as a regular draw we need a minimum of
4 entrants (3 players will allow us to run a round robin).
Please read through this homepage before signing up for the
tournament as many questions are addressed here.
GET SIGNED UP/WHY WAIT?:
Please do not "wait" for other players to sign up. This is
something that circles back and then few people sign up until the
last minute. If you are free and want to play...sign up. Other
"waiting" people will see names and then sign up too and
Tah-Dah...we have a nice draw with healthy competition for
all!
