The matches at UCT on Saturday were postponed due to rain, and players were told that officials will only officially call of all matches by 3pm. We returned to the courts at 14:30, at which time the courts were completely dry and playable. A notice that all play was suspended was issued by the officials at 14:40. I phoned the officials and confirmed that we were at the courts, that no official was seen inspecting the courts and that the courts are dry. The call was made prematurely and with no inspection. No further play on Saturday afternoon.

We played and practiced till 5:30 at UCT courts, with no further rain for the rest of the day.

Needless to say, we had to wait till Sunday afternoon and then missed out on matches that had to be played due to having to drive home so kids can be in time for school the next day.

PLEASE STICK WITH YOUR OWN RULES AND CONSIDER THOSE TRAVELING FROM OUT OF TOWN.

Very good tournament. Good communication through the tournament, especially with all the rain interruptions. Great court condition at WPCC.
