To kick off the competition, round-robin pool play will take place on the evening of July 3rd starting at 6:00 PM, which will be used to determine seeding for the official tournament bracket on July 4th. On tournament day, courts will open for warm-ups at 8:00 AM, giving players time to prepare before bracket play begins. Matches will start promptly at 9:00 AM and follow a double elimination format. Teams will be grouped by age and skill level into six divisions (skill divisions may be combined if there are not enough registrants in a category). Players will be responsible for keeping score, calling lines and reporting the match results to the tournament director. Medals will be awarded to the top 3 teams in each division, along with a $100 cash prize for each first-place team. In the spirit of Independence Day, suit up in stars and stripes, and let freedom swing!
