From the tournament desk
Scarborough is the only privately owned tennis club in Ohio and surrounding states that has a PlaySight system that offers live straming of events. Grandma can watch her grandkids play tennis from anywhere in the world that has decent internet capability!
Our tournaments are now sponsored by Head/Penn Sports!! ALL participants receive 30% off the purchase price of any HEAD bag, shoe, or racquet currently in our pro shop during the tournament!!
Please register for the appropriate "gender division" and not for the CO-ED division. This division is a last resort if we only had a couple of players in girls and in boys then we could put all players in to co-ed and have a tournament. :)
DRAW SIZE: 8 players* (In a full draw, this is still 3 matches!)
*could be adjusted based on number of entries. We may take more if we have a lot of alternates. We must have 4 players in a division to hold that part of the tournament.

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 Junior Circuit?
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 (Wed, Oct 7, 5:59pm EDT). Draws usually post the week of the tournament. Text Coach Ace and we will tell you the moment either one lands.
