Singles Selection:
The selection process will be based on the most recent published National Standing List Combined (NSL) at the time of player selection. If there are spots remaining after the NSL ranked players are selected, non-ranked players will be randomly drawn to fill the remaining spots.
Doubles Selection:
The selection process will be based on the most recent published National Standing List Combined (NSL) at the time of player selection. The ranking of both players is combined to be used as the team ranking.
Seeding Criteria:
The most recent published National Standing List Combined (NSL) at the time of player selection will be used for seeding purposes in both singles and doubles.
ALTERNATES
Once the player selection is completed, the players who are not selected into the draw will be placed on the alternate list and will not be charged.
In case of a withdrawal before the first day of the tournament, alternate players will be contacted in the order they appear on the alternate list to fill in the spot (if there are 2 flighted draws, alternates will fill in either draws).
On site alternate:
On the first day of the tournament, players need to sign in at the tournament desk as an onsite alternate before 8 a.m to be considered in case of a last minute withdrawal. Players that sign in as an onsite alternate will be listed in the order they appear on the alternate list, not the order of sign in. On site alternate players can only replace first round withdrawing players.
WITHDRAWALS:
Withdrawal request must be sent via email to adam@hawaii.usta.com and must state clearly and in detail the reason for withdrawal.

Questions parents ask
Will my junior get in?
No draw is full yet. Selection is by ranking list, so a junior with no ranking can still get in when a draw is not full, and goes on the alternate list when it is.
What is a Level 4?
USTA junior tournaments run from Level 7 (local, open to anyone) up to Level 1 (national). Lower number, stronger field, more points.
When do we know?
Selections post after entries close (Sat, Nov 14, 11:59am HST). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
