TOURNAMENT COMMITTEE:

Please note the following:
 
You are expected to play matches at both Oratory and Hardwick so please check carefully at which court your matches are scheduled to take place.
 
Players should wear predominantly white clothing, excluding shoes, although coloured tracksuits are permissible during knock-ups.  Players must arrive AT LEAST half an hour before their match.  We are playing to a TIGHT SCHEDULE.  For each two minutes a player is kept waiting for her opponent on court (even if the match starts early and is within a quarter of an hour of the scheduled time) a game will be awarded to the waiting player.  Knock-ups will be limited to two minutes.  The timer for the knock-up will be started as the players in the previous match leave the court.  Please be sure you are ready and waiting to go on court as soon as the previous match finishes so that you do not lose any knock-up time or games.  Matches will not be timed.  The Tournament Committee reserves the right to revise handicaps at any time if necessary.  The decisions of the Tournament Committee are final.
 
The Saturday Tournament Dinner will be held at the Oratory at 8.00 for 8.30pm.  Please let Katy know if there are any changes to attendance – and if you have any dietary requirements.
 
Tea and coffee will be available at both clubs during the tournament.  Refreshments will be on sale at the Oratory on both days but at Hardwick only on the Saturday. 
 
Any queries before the tournament, please telephone Katy Weston on 01635 201356 or mobile 07765 255569 or email: westonkaty@hotmail.com.
 
During the tournament contacts numbers are:  01491 681303 (Oratory Tennis Club) or 07765 255569 (Katy Weston) or 07717 296610 (Lucy Hutchinson)
