There were two separate tournaments; an A player tournament and B player tournament.

It was a round robin for each tournament. All A teams played all A teams and all B teams played B teams.

The format and 5 team tournament required a 5 set format each team having one bye set.

ALL teams play 4 sets and have one bye.

Thanks to all of you for coming out to play today.. We did our best didn’t we? In the end the extraordinary wind made it a game not like tennis at all. We were there to play tennis and the wind negated that purpose.

I was worried about injury to a player in such conditions where sudden lurches for a ball tossed about by the wind might occur. But all of you said that to cease play was desirable and/or acceptable.

Thanks again and hopefully we won’t have such interference in future tournaments.

P.S. A special thanks to Tim Warlin who accepted a last minute invitation to sub for a player who couldn’t play due to an overnight sickness. Also, to Sil and Chuck for helping me with all the banners and other stuff needed to make the tournament run well.

Please support Wee Shack in Morro Bay for their gift certificates which I will use in a future tournament. I hear they have GREAT burgers.

If you need tennis stuff, please support Tennis Warehouse as they supplied us with tennis balls as a gift for every entrant.
