WELCOME TO WEYMOUTH

On behalf of the organisational team we would like to welcome you to Weymouth for our 29th Classic. We hope you have great weekend.  We hope regular visitors will like our slightly  changed  lay out this year , we hope that it will  make access to Centre Court a little easier .All officials will be in blue/black Weymouth logoed shirts so please ask them if you have any concerns. Any issues about match orders etc should be addressed to the guys at the desk s in the Marquee.

MATCH SCHEDULES

There will be no PA announcements to call teams to courts. It is the responsibility of the team to check the match orders in the marquee.

CENTRE COURT

If you are told that you are due to play on Centre Court please ensure that you have completed a player profile sheet (available at the desk) so that the commentators can confidently talk about you.

WARM UPS

The warm up between matches will be 5 minutes from the time the court is cleared from the previous match. It is essential that this is strictly kept to so that we can ensure that play for the day finishes at a reasonable hour.

RESULTS SHEETS

The winning team is responsible for bringing the result sheet to the desk

BALL ROLL

The tradition of deciding who is to serve will continue to be done by ball roll.  For players new to Weymouth a demonstration of this will be carried out before the commencement of play

TOILETS

The best and nearest toilets are in the back of the amusement arcade just opposite the site. The management of the arcade are aware you are using them. If these are closed the next best alternative is to walk along the front past Banus, on the corner of the next junction is a toilet block in a horizontally striped building.

LITTER BINS

There are plenty of litter bins on site please ensure that you keep the site tidy and please let us know if any of the bins are full.

This will be available from mid morning on Saturday in the players chill out tent.

4-A-SIDE

If you would like to compete in the 4-aside competition taking place on Sunday then you need to register at the event desk as soon as you are eliminated from your main draw. We will aim to run a serious 4’s and a social 4’s so please let us know which of these you want to compete in. Entries will close at the close of play on Saturday and play will begin at 10am on Sunday.

2012

Our event date next year clashes with the Olympics so the Classic in its normal form will not take place. We are currently discussing possibly doing a smaller pre Olympic event in May. Otherwise we hope you enjoy the Olympics, see you in Horse Guards parade and we will welcome you back here in 2013 for our 30th event.
