Autumn Championships 2010 - Entry Form

Sorry the entry for this years Club Championships is now closed.
RULES :
   
1. All competitors must be fully paid up members of Barnet L.T.C. Not open to Weekday or Weekday and Evening members or juniors (other than those with senior status).
2. Finals Day is Saturday 16th October – once again the finals will take place on the ‘Claytex’ courts. Please do not enter if you cannot play on this date. Preliminary rounds will take place starting late August/early September. If you are going on holiday during the tournament in September or October please advise the tournament referee who will then make a decision as to whether it is viable for you to enter.
3. The Closing Date for entries is 19th August. The draw will be posted on the notice board shortly after. If you will be on holiday on the closing date please remember to enter before you go away! It is every player's responsibility to check the draw to see when they are playing. Players can enter by filling in the form above, or via the sign-up sheets on the clubhouse notice-boards.
4. Please note I have now reverted to the rule that both players or pairs are EQUALLY responsible for arranging matches. This is to prevent the situation where players were deliberately not contacting their opponents to try to engineer walkovers. Both players/pairs are now liable to be scratched if matches are not played on time. The player/pair who arrange the match must offer 3 dates to the opponents, at least
one of them must be a weekend and at least one must be a weekday evening. Please write in the match scores so we can send the results in to the L.T.A. in the over 35 and under 35 singles events. Every year delays are caused because results are not written in. Players may be scratched if they do not write results in as it will be assumed that the match has not been played.
5. The Tournament Referee is John Hall.
6. All matches other than handicaps will be the best of 3 sets with a tie-break at 6-6 in all sets. This is subject to change depending on the number of entries. Handicap events are 1 pro set (first to 9 games with no tie-break). At 8-8 the next game wins (no tie-breaks). The Open Handicap Singles is for male or female players who will be given a handicap and play the same format as handicap doubles.
7. If you would like to enter a doubles event but have no partner please write `Partner Wanted' on your entry. We will then try to find a partner for you. Please do make an attempt to find a partner, as we cannot guarantee to pair everybody up.
8. Players are restricted to a total of 4 events. Please do not over-commit yourself, particularly if you have limited availability. Please do not enter any of the events if you are on holiday for a period of 2 weeks or longer during the tournament, or if you are unavailable on Finals Day. Players must also be prepared to play matches both evenings and weekends, and should otherwise not enter.
9. Please note you qualify for over 35 if you become 35 this year, or if you have already reached that milestone!
