So you want to run a tennis tournament?
Congratulations on your decision! This can be one of the most rewarding experiences you can have as long as you have the tools and information necessary in order to run a successful tournament.
This manual is not intended to teach you how to run a tournament. There are various tournament formats, events and locations. These issues can make holding a tennis tournament significantly different each time. This manual is intended to describe the important actions and activities necessary to plan and hold an event. Several pieces of information in this manual are taken directly from the Friend at Court handbook, consisting of the rules and regulations governing all USTA Sanctioned events.
The manual is not intended to be a static document but one that is subject to revisions and enhancements in order to assist tournament directors in running a tournament. Please provide any feedback you may have about the manual to Pat Colbert at colbert@northern.usta.com or Nancy Lundberg at lundberg@northern.usta.com.
