Draw times have been rescheduled and are now posted. Although some forecasts show sunny skies in the morning, at least one shows rain...please be sure to double check tournament homepage before you leave the house! In addition, please remember to check your draw for site - a third site was added for just a few matches, directions and address below.

Due to the rain and wet courts, we are cancelling matches for today, Saturday 6/27. Schedule will be reworked and posted later today. As court availability will be different tomorrow, some match times will change (ie not necessarily the same times tomorrow as today). I will get the schedule up as soon as possible, but also want to watch the radar to see how early we should be able to start in the morning with dry courts. Questions, please contact me - 703-862-8702

This tournament is sanctioned over 4 days - Saturday through Tuesday. The plan is to play most to all of the main draw matches on Saturday or Sunday. However, IF there is rain on Saturday, there is a good chance we will have to push main draw matches into Monday. There will not be any refunds for players who cannot play during the week after I accept players today. If you would NOT like to be accepted into the tournament (and therefore not charged), please email me at teresalemair@aol.com by 5:30 PM Wednesday.

Please Be On Time!

Players should check in and be ready to play (warmed up, stretched, and been to the restroom) at least 15 minutes before the match start time.
If a court is open, we will get the match started asap in order to avoid any delays later in the day!
