PAYMENT/PARTNER POLICY
Players must be fully paid up to be confirmed to play in an event. If registering for a Doubles event, both players must be registered and paid to hold a spot in an event. If you don't have a registered partner, you will be moved to Waitlist if the division in which a spot is being held is filled with fully registered and paid teams.
PARTNER REPLACEMENT POLICY
After registration is closed, any registered player losing a partner may replace that partner someone in the same skill/age group that you are scheduled to play (though they may NOT play in two of the same type of event. For example if you need a male to play Mixed Doubles with you, he can't be already playing Mixed Doubles in another skill/age group already). Players can play down in age and up in skill. Replacements need to be known and communicated to the tournament director by 5pm the day before you are scheduled to play. If you are not able to find a replacement after registration closes, you may be issued a refund for the event only.
