Ratings Not Out Yet; Promised Monday

Hellooooooooooooooooo, USTA South Carolina ……………..

Helloooooooooooooooo, Southern Tennis ……………………..

Helloooooooooooooooooo, USTA National ……………………

HILTON HEAD ISLAND SC (TENNIS E-News) – Okay. We know the USTA League 2008 year-end ratings will be posted Monday. We know because the posting was promised by then.

What we don’t know (and have many players asking) is exactly what league results go into the new ratings – the ones that will dictate on which levels we will be playing through the entire 2009.

Please. Here is a simple list. Someone of authority must be able to “X” the appropriate league seasons that apply so that we have it all in one place for reference. Please do so by return email because once those ratings hit the web the questions will be flying. Thank you.

Those marked with an “X” are the results that figure into the year-end 2008 ratings. Please add if any other results are included:

[ ] Spring League Adult & Senior Local Season

[ ] Spring League Adult & Senior District (State) Championships

[ ] Super Senior Combo Local Season

[ ] Adult & Senior Mixed Doubles Local Season

[ ] Adult & Senior Combo Local Season

[ ] Super Senior Fall 2007 Local Season

[ ] Super Senior Fall 2007 District (State) Championships
