Doubles/Partners
Note: The tournament does not find doubles partners for you. If you have a partner, both players need to email me at okctenniscenter@att.net to indicate they are playing together by 6/3017 at Noon. If you do not have a partner you have two options if you are wanting to play doubles. 1. You may ask to be placed in the blind draw. 2.
At the
Players Check-In, you may sign up that you're looking for a partner.
During the check-in process you will have time to meet other players
looking
for partners. Note: if there is an odd number of players requesting to
be in the blind draw someone while not be paired up. I will make the
doubles draw following the Players
Check-in.
