2012 Tournaments!
This year the Tournament Committee is again trying to
achieve open court time balanced by an expectation for
fun and well-run tournaments in our many different
divisions. As in the past, almost all members have been
helpful and cooperative in scheduling and playing
matches in a timely fashion. However, inevitably,
weather, injuries and vacations result in delays that
hold up entire categories and create serious backups for
open court time. Accordingly, we have made some
adjustments to tournament rules. These are intended to
add responsibility on the part of the participants to
schedule and play matches in a timely manner and to
allow for flexibility to Warren and tournament referees
to monitor the tournaments in order to assure fair and
consistent results.
Last year the Club held a very successful Mixed A and B
Doubles, Men's A and B Doubles and Women's Tournament.
We had a record number of participants especially in
Mixed Doubles and Men's B Doubles events. Fully one
third of our membership plays in singles, doubles or
mixed events. The Tournament Committee is delighted with
the participation of so many players. However, the large
draws presented a number of challenges including court
usage and match arrangements. Frequent match delays
occurred and made the tournament operation quite trying
for Warren and the Tournament Committee volunteers.
