WEATHER UPDATE MONDAY MORNING 7:15AM
Draws are updated with match times for McCallie School.
Good Morning Everyone! Despite the fact that we didn't have much rain overnight, our weather conditions were not conducive to much drying. Additionally, our damp and foggy conditions are not going to help with that process this morning either. As such, we are going to commit to playing tennis today at McCallie School. Doubles will be 8:30 at McCallie Indoors. If conditions change and courts begin to dry, we could potentially play some singles outside at McCallie.
PARKING NOTE FOR MCCALLIE TODAY BECAUSE SCHOOL IS IN SESSION THIS MORNING!!! PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN ANY SPACE MARKED RESERVED. ALSO DO NOT PARK ON THE STREET ON THE HILL IN BETWEEN THE INDOOR TENNIS CENTER AND THE OUTDOOR COURTS. PARKING SPACES ARE AVAILABLE IN THE LOWER LOT BELOW THE OUTDOOR TENNIS COURTS, JUST MAKE SURE THE SPOT DOES NOT SAY RESERVED. YOU MAY PARK ON THE STREET IN BETWEEN THE INDOOR TENNIS CENTER AND THE BASEBALL STADIUM AS WELL.
