Doors open at 8:00 am on Saturday.  Coaches meeting will be at 8:30 on Court #1.  Play begins at 9 am.

Here is my tentative plan for playing formats.  

In the 18/17, it looks like we will have 8 teams.  So they will play the normal
2 pools of 4 teams with the top 2 teams from each pool advancing to the Gold
Division brackets.  The other two teams will advance to the Silver Division
brackets.  Each team will play at least 4 matches and as many as 5.

The 16/15/14 division is still in flux.  I have 13 teams signed up.  Here is my plan:

One 4 team pool
Three 3 team pools

The 4 team pool (Pool 1) plays the normal pool format.  But I don’t want the 3
team pools (Pools 2, 3 and 4) playing best of 5 sets.  So I am going to 
have them play just best of 3 set matches within their pools.  Take a 20
minute break.  Rank the three teams in each pool and the three 1st place teams. 

Then run the following challenge matches: 

Round 1:
Court #4   2nd Best 1st place vs 3rd Best 1st place with Best 1st ref.                                                                                                    
Court #5   Pool 4 #2 vs Pool 3 #3 with Pool 2 #2 Ref            
Court #6   Pool 3 #2 vs Pool 2 #3 with Pool 4 #3 ref

Round #2:
Court #4   Best 1st vs Winner of previous match with previous loser ref
Court #5   Pool 2 #2 vs Pool 4 #3 with previous loser from court 5 ref

This way every team will get at least 3 matches and one team will play 4 matches.

Since there are five 14s teams entered, I will break them out to run their
own playoff bracket on a 7’4” net.  The other eight 16/15s will be divided into
Gold and Silver division brackets depending upon their pool and challenge match records.

This is all subject to change.
  

No outside food is not allowed into the facility.  A concession stand will be
available for participants and spectators.  Personal coolers must be left in
your vehicles.

Spectator seating is provided.  Personal chairs are not allowed.
