3) Find a volunteer parent to serve as Team Parent – responsibilities found here.
4) Schedule practices and play!

Big changes have been made for our Summer league!
After much parent & player feedback, it has been decided that a new Open Singles Format will be the method of play for Summer 2012! Players will register into divisions according to playing level: QuickStart (10 and under), Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced. Division directors will organize matches each Tuesday night at a designated location. All matches will be played in a singles format, and there will be the opportunity to win the flight according to age, gender and ability. Summer matches will be held for 6 weeks beginning June 12th with a week off for July 4th. Registration is open now and ends June 4th. To register, visit www.tinyurl.com/gjttregister
Use the following team numbers according to ability level:
QuickStart (10 and under only): 7041187338
Beginner: 7041187339
Intermediate: 7041187340
Advanced: 7041187341
Players will be assigned to age level flights after all participants have registered into the respective ability level divisions. Local registration fee is $39. A USTA membership is also required ($20/calendar year for a jr. membership).
