TIMES FOR SATURDAY FIRST ROUNDS ARE POSTED. CONSOLATION TIMES WILL BE UP TOMORROW. Please read below.
Some round robins will not be finished if there are too many matches to play in a weekend.
We have moved many boys matches to Champions Club. Champions is CC on the draw. The address is 1096 Lupton Drive, Lupton City Tn 37351. It is 10 minutes from downtown. This will prevent us from getting backed up at GPS and also allow a better bathroom situation for boys than at GPS. We are having some construction done on our indoor tennis center and the mens bathroom is out- there is a changing area and a portolet. We can make the girls available some too. Thanks for your understanding. Please e-mail me if there are any mistakes on the draw. The seeding was done using Southern Standings on 2/24.We tried to separate siblings, people from the same town in the first round, and doubles partners.The weather is supposed to be good, but the mornings cool. We are looking forward to a great tournament this weekend! Thanks!
