DRAWS AND DOUBLES
Typically I try to have my singles draws up by Wednesday at noon. Any players wishing to play doubles must sign up online by the tournament deadline for doubles. Once the entries have closed, players have until Wednesday at noon to notify me of their partner or I can pair players up in a blind draw. Doubles draws will be available as quickly after noon on Wednesday as possible.
