Rules

Once the schedule is posted, start contacting your opponents for scheduling. DO NOT wait until the last minute! Offer 3 days/times to start and work to find something that works for both!
Matches may be rescheduled if 24 hours notice is given.
Each match is given 2 weeks to play. If you are unable to schedule a match within this time frame, one late pass per participant will be granted.
If a mutual day and time can not be agreed upon after both parties have offered 3 different days and times, the default match day will be the deadline day at 11am.
USTA “The Code” rules of conduct apply. Please download and print these from the USTA website.
The home team will provide an unopened can of balls for the match.
10 and under’s play with orange balls, 12 and under’s green balls and 14’s and 16’s yellow balls.
The home team players will provide the match balls.

A 10-point match tie break will be played.
Both tie breaks, players will switch sides at 6.
