These include food, snacks, a ditty bag, and drinks, providing sustenance and energy throughout the day. However, space is limited, highlighting the importance of early registration to secure participation.
Divisions and Brackets
The tournament caters to various skill levels, divided into four main categories: Women Above 3.0, Men Above 3.0, Women 3.0 and Below, and Men 3.0 and Below. This segmentation ensures competitive balance, allowing participants to face off against players of similar skill levels. It’s a perfect setup for both seasoned players and newcomers to the sport.
Special Notes and Considerations
All participants must choose between this event and the concurrent Tennis Tournament, as double entries are not permitted.
