Please check your start time as well as weekend schedule by viewing the draws. SCHEDULE OF PLAY Tentative schedule is as follows: Friday 5pm & Saturday/Sunday as early as 1030am but usually 3pm. We may need to adjust these times (earlier/later) based on the number of entries. If you have a conflict please do not sign up for our tournament. We will not be able to accommodate any special scheduling. We also have no idea how many players will actually sign up or what time what age divisions are playing until after the deadline and selections, seeds and draws have been made, BYES placed, etc. Please do not email and ask what time a specific age group plays. If you are not available within the tentative time frame above (give & take a few hours), please do not sign up. Most players sign up the very last day hours before the deadline, so we cannot make any scheduling decisions, till after the deadline. We will post this online as soon as we post start times. SELECTION PROCESS Draws are limited to 16 per age division except in BG10's where we are limited to 8 per draw. This eliminates most BYES in the draw where players are "waiting" to play or not play based on a match result. If we have more than 16 players, the TOP RANKED PLAYERS will be selected from the most current Midwest Standings List in the age division of the event. We encourage all ranked and unranked players to sign up. Most times many players accepted are unranked. MATCHTIEBREAK INFORMATION When using the shortened match format and playing a MatchTiebreak (Supertiebreak) in lieu of the third set, a player is allowed a 3 minute rest after the second set and before the MatchTiebreak where coaching is allowed. WITHDRAWS/MIDWEST SUSPENSION POINT SYSTEM If you need to withdraw while registration is still open, please go to our homepage and in the right margin, click on “Edit Registration" and proceed to withdraw. No reason is necessary. If registration has closed and tournament has not begun yet, please email PattyL58@comcast.net and list the reason for withdraw. If the tournament has begun, please call the club and ask for tournament desk. REMEMBER when withdrawing from a USTA event once the selections have been made, the only reasons that are accepted by the USTA Referee without incurring FIVE (5) suspension points are injury, illness or family emergency. Having a soccer game, a family dinner, or not feeling like playing the consolation are not accepted reasons. SIGNING UP FOR TWO EVENTS/MIDWEST SUSPENSION POINT SYSTEM The USTA/Midwest Section Suspension Point System is in effect. You are expected to play the entire event as scheduled. All players will be given FIVE (5) suspension points for entering two or more tournaments that take place at the same time, in whole or in part, unless each Tournament Director involved agrees with the multiple entries in writing via email. This applies to all players who signed up for the tournament including alternates. USTA CONTACT INFORMATION Procedure for tournament registration: because of Privacy Laws, your contact information from USTA membership doesn't show up in the Tournament Directors' software anymore. Only what you indicate during the registration process shows up. We have no way of contacting you if you leave these areas blank. For instance, if your opponent is sick and you didn't enter a cell # or email address, we will not be able to contact you. You must indicate all phone numbers, home, cell (a must!), work and your email address on each registration, EACH and EVERY time, for each and every tournament you register for. SEEDING REGULATIONS The number of players seeded shall equal a power of two (for example 2,4,8,16,32).
