2023 HTC Club Championships (Graded Seniors)


Graded Events Draws:

Details for the day:

  • 10am start - please arrive prior to 10am so that we can get the first matches on promptly.

  • 'Best of 8 games' match format - we have had strong entries this year as per previous years. So as noted in the entry email, in order to get through all matches in the one day, the match format will be best of 8 games (e.g. result of 8-0, 6-2, 4-4 with 7 pt tie-breaker). Finals for all events will be best of 2 sets with a 10 pt tie-breaker. The Club Champs are a 'knock out' competition. Feel free if you get knocked out of your events early to stick around for the BBQ and watch some great tennis, culminating in finals later in the afternoon. Note: it will be by agreement between the players at the start of the match whether play continues beyond the point where there is a result ie. if a player gets to 5 games, there is no chance of their opposition winning hence the match can be concluded.

  • Event draws - draws will be made available on Wednesday 20th September. Draws will be posted on the Club noticeboard as well as emailed to all participants. Please note that changes may be made post the draws being published due to late withdrawals and/or replacement entries being received.

  • Entry fees will be collected on the day via the Square terminal (cash also accepted). A reminder that the entry fees are $10 per player for singles and $5 per player for doubles.

  • Match scheduling - As per previous years, in order to get through all matches we will not be rostering/scheduling matches. This is in order to optimise court usage and ensure that all matches are completed in the one day. This may result in some "wait time" between matches. So please bring along the morning paper, sudoku, wordle, or enjoy the opportunity to chat with a club member who you haven't chatted with before!

  • BBQ - the club will put on a BBQ for early afternoon in order to keep players sustained! This will be a basic BBQ (snags, bread, salad), so if you feel like something a bit fancier, please feel free to bring along your own bits and pieces to BBQ. Feel free to also bring along some food to graze on and for players to share.

  • Wet Weather - at this stage, the weather for next weekend is looking great, but things can change! We will email participants at 9am on Sunday 24th should it be a complete washout. Otherwise please assume it is on. 

  • Awards - trophies/prizes for the Winners and Runner's Up  for all events will be presented at the 2023 HTC AGM which takes place in December.
