Read the rest

Score format:
2 out of 3 short sets (sets to 4, tiebreak at 3-3) with a 7 point tiebreak in lieu of a third set. No ad Scoring.
Waterfall and Seeding will be by Ranking:
If divisions are split into multiple groups (e.g. 32 players split into two groups of 16 each), the groups will be waterfalled based on each players’ current position on the Combined National Standing List. WATERFALL is a method of distributing players into separate draws so that each draw or team is of similar overall strength. Seeding for Compass Draws will use each player’s current position on the Combined National Standing List, while Round Robin Draws will not be seeded.

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 6?
The entry point of USTA junior tennis. One or two days, local, no ranking needed to enter, and every win earns ranking points. The right first tournament.
When do we know?
Selections post after entries close (Sun, Oct 4, 5:59pm EDT). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
