GETTING READY FOR <strong>2012</strong>!<br />
AGE ELIGIBILITY - The Process of Entering a Tournament<br />
(and what this really means)<br />
ALL JUNIOR PLAYERS, <strong>com</strong>peting in <strong>USTA</strong> sanctioned events, you may play an age division<br />
until the month in which you age up, or, in other words, until your birthday month. This means that<br />
players who are 12, 14, 16 or 18 years old may continue, to play in their 12, 14, 16 or 18 age division<br />
until the month in which they turn 13, 15, 17 or 19, respectively.<br />
For example: A player who turns 15 in October, may play in the 14-and-under age up to and through<br />
September 30. Starting October 1, this player must play in the 16-and-under age division.<br />
As in the past, you may also elect to play in an older age division before you are required to do so.<br />
However, it is IMPORTANT that you consult your Section’s rulings to be certain of your eligibility<br />
in more than one age division before making this choice.<br />
