THANK YOU for playing in our LLP DayTN Spring Open Tournament. 

All draws are posted for the tournament. Please check your draw/ bracket time and arrive 30 minutes before the bracket start time, even if you have a Bye in the first round. Please note that only Round Robin draws are posted. We will have Playoffs (and may have consolation matches if we have 2 groups) matches immediately after the Round Robin. Please do NOT go home just because you lost a couple of games in the Round Robin. 

Last minute dropout? I know things happen last minute. If you or your partner may not be able to make it, please text or call me immediately and I'll update the brackets or replace the player for a $10 fee. 

Volunteers: We are looking for anyone (preferably not playing at that time) to be our volunteers to help with scoresheets, giving out medals, take pictures etc. If you volunteer for more than 4 hours, you will get a free lunch/ dinner, Free entree to our next tournament, along with a free LLP apparel.   

Rainout: Weather looks shady on Saturday. Please check TOURNEY TALK (messages on A2M Sports Mobile App) for updates. Its a good time to download A2M Sports mobile App, as it sends notifications if there is any update. Unless we cancel the day before, we will NOT send emails multiple times and the best place is to check the Tourney Talk or Messages in the App. If it rains on Saturday, some of the matches may be held on Sunday afternoon. Its NOT guaranteed, so, please wait for my email if we are doing a make up session. We may not have playoff if it rains during the round robin. You will not wait more than 3 hours to play. If we have to cancel the whole event without playing even the Round Robin matches, you will get a $15 coupon for to any LLP tournament in the future. I hope we don't have to use that.  

Blower/ Squeezies:  I will bring a leaf blower and a bunch of towels to dry courts. Please bring a leaf blower if you can spare one. Any players who gets to help, will be a star volunteer and you will get a free LLP Wristband, Hat or Visor for your helping hand.
