Notes
Checking in: Please check in 15 minutes before your match
time if at all possible. When you check in for your match, you
must be ready to play as described in USTA's Friend at Court--shoes
on, water jugs filled, racquets gripped, bathroom used, etc.--and
within earshot of the tournament desk. Please stay on the upper
level of the lounge area once checked in. If you are not readily
available and/or within earshot when your match is called, you may
be subject to lateness penalties.
Coaching: Between the second and third sets, coaching is allowed--3
minutes before a 10-point tiebreak. The timer for these breaks
begins as soon as the final point of the previous game ends.
Failure to return to court by the end of the break will result in a
time violation. Some courts are far away. Please plan
accordingly.
Water: Lifetime Lakeville has added a filter and bottle filler to
the drinking fountain in the tennis lobby. Please make use of this
to fill your water bottle/jug before going on court. The coolers in
the walkway to the courts will no longer be present.
Warm-up courts: Courts may be available for warm-up throughout the
weekend, but none are guaranteed. Warm-up court usage is limited to
15 minutes at a time (more than this, and you will be charged for
the full court time), and you are required to share the court with
other players. If you plan to hit before your first match of the
day, booking a court is the best way to guarantee being able to do
so.
Doubles participants without a partner (signed up without or
partner not selected) will be paired randomly with each other. No
requests for partners will be accepted except for partners
designated with your tournament registration.
