Star Island Resort's One-day Level 7

What is the format? It will vary by division depending how many players are entered, but normally it will either be a short set(s) to 4 with no-ad scoring or a single 8-game set against each opponent. It will be a round robin, non-elimination format, and we will get all the players as many opponents as reasonably possible within a 2.5 - 3 hour time frame.

Do we combine divisions? Yes, but only when there are small draws. We want to get the players as many opponents as possible to give them experience playing multiple players with different playing styles. Typically the players in these age groups are novice players, so the age and gender differences don't have the same amount of bearing on who wins or losses as it would for older players in a higher level event. We would only merge divisions that signed up to play with the same ball and court size.

I live far away, can I get a late start? No, since these are round robin format, all of the players typically need to start at the same time.

Are there warmup courts available? Typically, only prior to the earliest matches of the day. Because we normally reach our facility capacity during tournaments, we need all of the courts for match play. There are free public courts at Oak Street Park in Kissimmee, about 6 miles from our location, they are usually first come, first serve.
