Events

Saturday’s weather is still questionable and Sunday’s weather looks great so we will have the tournament and social on Sunday. One bonus is we will all have more time tomorrow to whip up some good potluck to enjoy together.

Six teams have entered. Round robin play will take place from 9am to approximately 1pm and then those participating will decide the format for the remainder of the day. Social/potluck and Final will take place in the mid- or late-afternoon.

Competing teams include: Peggy Clement and Linda Herman, Blaine Laskowski and Rosa Mastrocola, Woody Dugan and Darlene McCormick, Charlie Delaney and Melody Badgett, Walter Oberlander and Warren Koss, and Tom and Suzanne Lynch.

SCHEDULE
8:30 – 12:00        Round Robin Matches
Social potluck and Final to follow.

We welcome and encourage our tennis community and guests to come watch matches and finals, cheer on the teams, and socialize with us afterwards. Please bring your favorite dish to share during and/or after the matches. Soda/seltzer and beer will be provided by the Club. Thanks in advance everyone!

We look forward to seeing everyone on Sunday and celebrating MRTC tennis!

Hi All,

We’re checking to see if everyone hoping to enter a team for this weekend’s tournament has done so, or if there are any more singles as we have one unpaired person.

Saturday’s weather is looking iffy but we know how that can change daily. Sunday’s weather is looking great! We need to maintain our flexibility, and hope that Club members will be excited to come watch the finals and join the potluck, whatever day it is.

Hello Tennis Friends,

We are beginning the planning for this year’s Labor Day weekend social and tournament. Labor Day weekend this year is September 5 through 7. This year’s tournament will be mixed doubles with women’s and parent/child teams also welcome. A team’s approximate combined average skill level should not be greater than NTRP 4.0 (not greater than total of 8.0).

Tournament play may be spread over Saturday and Sunday as needed based on the number of entries and the weather forecast. We may consider some format changes this year based on number of teams and team availability. Sunday and/or Monday will be rain date(s). Play will be followed by a potluck social on one of the days.

PLEASE RESPOND ASAP to [email protected] with your intention to enter a team, and with the following information:

• Team member names.
• If you do not have a partner and would like us to match you up.
• Estimated NTRP.
• Your availability in at least two, preferably three or all of the time slots Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, Sunday morning, and Sunday afternoon to allow us most flexibility in planning.

The sooner you respond, the better, as that will give us an indication of how much court time to reserve. Comments/ideas/feedback welcome from previous participants.

As always, we hope this will be a great opportunity for fun competition and a fulfilling occasion for us to visit with each other and celebrate tennis!
