SCORING and FORMATS
Regular Scoring
Format for Singles and Doubles: For all matches except Finals: Best of 2 TB sets with Match Tiebreak played at 1 set all. FINALS for all divisions (except M65-80) will play a 3rd set instead of a Match tiebreaker. For M65-80 the 3rd set would be optional for the FINAL if both players agree prior to the start of the match.
Singles matches will play a First Match Losers Consolation. There will be no consolation rounds for any doubles. If you lose your first match played, out of courtesy to your opponent please notify Cheryl Helton if you don't intend to play the consolation.

DRAWS (posted 5pm Thursday)
Draws are posted. We have tried to identify any conflicts with times. There are a few where the times will be tight, depending on winners or losers of previous matches. We will adjust those times as necessary on a case by case basis.
Other than the 8am Matches, Sunday times should be considered tentative. We would be happy to accommodate any requests for earlier match times on Sunday. There are 2 matches in M60 singles scheduled on Monday morning at 8:30 that we would also like to move to Sunday if at all possible.
As mentioned in another headline, there are 4 8am matches scheduled at the Cloister Tennis Center on Saturday and Sunday. You should go straight to the Cloister for those matches. Please look for the site of your matches. RTC or CTC. Please be responsible for your match times to avoid lateness penalties.
