Important Information
The schedule program contains links for each
match site that will take you to our site detail page for that site. From
there, you can get a map or driving directions to the site. Please allow
enough travel time to arrive at your match site at least fifteen (15)
minutes prior to your scheduled match time. Please note that we are
utilizing two different Ken-Caryl locations (Ranch House and Community
Center). For clarification, Boys and Girls 10’s will
play their preliminary rounds at
Ken-Caryl Community Center (KCCC). The Boys 14’s will play their
preliminary rounds at
Ken-Caryl Ranch House (KCRH). Road construction or
heavy traffic may be an issue so plan accordingly.
Nearly 940 matches need to be played over three days, so staying on schedule
is extremely important. Full teams accompanied by a team parent or coach are
required to report to the tournament desk at their specific site at least
fifteen (15) minutes prior to their scheduled match time. USTA Colorado
recommends arriving closer to 30 minutes prior to your match time. Lateness
penalties, as described in USTA regulations, may be assessed by the site
director and official. Matches are assigned to courts based on order in
which line-up cards are submitted to the tournament desk; thus, teams that
submit lineup cards early have the opportunity to get on court sooner.
Matches may begin early if courts are available. A team match may start with
the two singles matches or the one doubles match. The order of each match
will be available at the tournament desk upon check in and will not be
changed unless the site director deems it necessary for court usage reasons.
Requests to change the order will not be honored, so please do not ask. To
accommodate the flighted round robin format (most divisions), some team
matches are scheduled back-to-back; another reason to bring a full
complement of players for your team.
A team match format, consisting of two singles positions and one doubles
position will be used. The team winning the majority of the three individual
matches (i.e. 2-1 or 3-0) will be awarded the win for that team match and
will be given one (1) point in the standings. The number of games won will
only be a factor in cases of ties of overall match results. Teams advance
through the playoffs by winning the most team matches in their flight and
subsequent semis and/or final.
In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by:
1. Individual matches won (if necessary)
2. Fewest sets lost (if necessary)
3. Fewest games lost (if necessary)
