Communication Strategy
1. Talk to the site tournament desk staff
2. If they don't know the answer the tournament desk staff can
email Josh Pinyerd at jpinyerd@pnw.usta.com. Email is the best way
to get a hold of Josh. The second best way the tournament is by
calling Galbraith Tennis Center at (253) 533-1145 and asking for
Troy. If he can't pick up the phone he will get back to you as soon
as he can. Email is the best form of communication, he is on and
off the tennis court so please wait for a response before calling
the front desk staff.
If Josh does not respond to your email right away, it is because he
is on court and will get to it ASAP. Calling the front desk will
not speed up this process.
