TOURNAMENT CANCELLED
It is with regret that we must cancel the mixed doubles tournament today.
We have had a huge number of withdrawals after the location change and time change and they are continuing to come in through my email. Some of these brackets have gotten so small and with a reduced scoring format, it isn't worth the everyone's time to travel and make new plans with time changes.
We did everything we could to avoid canceling the tournament but this is best decision for everyone.
We do have a no refund policy for weather but everyone who was only entered into mixed doubles will receive a 50% refund to the card that they paid with.
Thanks you everyone for supporting the ECT Tournaments and we hope to see you in the future

If your match is going to be refereed (referee desk will tell you if you have a referee), you will wait until all players are present and enter the courts with the referee. If your match is not refereed, the first pair (or player) to the desk will collect the match ball and the second pair (or player) to the desk will collect the scoresheet.
