In previous years players had to check-in for the time-slot and then return for a court allocation.
This year you will check-in once only for each time-slot. Check-in will be 10 to 15 minutes prior to your scheduled time. The first team to check-in will be given the score card. The second team will be given the tennis balls. You will also be allocated a court number .
You will wait at the allocated court for the current match to finish and then commence your match without delay.
Late check-ins may be scratched, especially on day 2 where the doubles time-slot is just 30 minutes. Matches must start on time to get through the program.
