NTRP TX Sanctioned players are required to Self Rate, if they have

notified that Self Ratings are now required for play in levels

removed.
Round Robin draws: a player who is defaulted for any reason
other than lateness shall not play in subsequent matches. If a

Rounds following that defaulted match, and if subsequent matches
are played, those matches will not count towards rankings.
SEEDING: USTA Texas recommends the "All Factors Method" of
seeding for Ad/Sr/SS divisions and that Committees use the Texas 12
Month Rolling Standings List for initial considerations. If other
information is to be considered (such as head-to-head wins), emails
must be sent to the Tournament Director immediately after entry
deadline.
