Boys 12s Singles Redraw
Dear Players, We have had several withdrawals in the Boys 12s Level 1A including one of our seeds. This prompts us to re-make the draw. Because of the move from Kentucky and the holiday, I will wait until 6pm Central time on Wednesday to re-make the draw in case any of the current players are not supposed to be in the draw. Please email me at lowellcoffman@ustatn.com if you are NOT to be in the draw. New times will be on the re-made draw.
