Doubles draws.....
Because of so many players playing two events and with a chance of rain on Sunday, we will be playing no-ad scoring for all doubles draws and mixed draws, up to the finals. All doubles times are scheduled thru the second round, and are subject to change. There will be a consolation round in all doubles events. Anything not scheduled will be played Sunday unless both opponents agree to play late on Saturday, which there will be courts available after 3:30pm. Double check all round robin times because they not be scheduled in time order
