• No refunds will be given for rain delays. The only exception to our "no refunds after player selection" policy is in the event of a weather cancellation, as detailed below.
Weather Cancellation Refund Policy
• Canceling the tournament is a last resort. An alternate date may be chosen to make it up due to weather
• If the tournament is canceled before a player's first main draw match, the player will receive a refund of $15 less than the entry fee.
• If the tournament is canceled before a player's second main draw match, the player will receive a refund of 1/2 the amount and $15 less than the entry fee paid.
• No refunds are issued once a player has begun their second main draw match--even if it is interrupted before completion. Additionally, no refunds are issued for players in the consolation/ 3/4 playoff bracket at the time of cancellation.
• We truly wish we could refund the full amount when the tournament is canceled before any matchplay, but approximately $15 of each payment is sent directly to the USTA and we cannot refund that portion on our end.

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 Junior Circuit?
USTA junior tournaments run from Level 7 (local, open to anyone) up to Level 1 (national). Lower number, stronger field, more points.
