Tennis Players,

Labor Day weekend is only two weeks away, which means it’s time to find a partner for the annual Chocorua/Tamworth Labor Day Tennis Tournaments (Mixed Doubles and/or Men’s Doubles).

Please call/email us with your (or a family member’s) doubles team entry (or entries) no later than Wednesday, August 31st (noon). Anyone from Chocorua/Tamworth or neighboring towns (i.e. Madison, Sandwich, Albany) are invited to play. A minimum of eight (8) doubles teams is required for each tournament – the ideal number is 12 teams or 16 teams. Please also provide a phone number at which the players can be reached during Labor Day weekend, and an email address (if available).

(Does anyone want to play in a Women’s Doubles tournament over Labor Day weekend? If there’s enough interest, Emilie Smith will try to organize a women’s doubles tournament or round robin. If you’re interested in playing, please let Emilie know – she can be reached at emilieandsons@comcast.net or 781-237-3484.)

To enter either tournament, or if you have a question, please contact one of the following:

• Kent Hemingway (Tamworth) >> hemingway.k@gmail.com or 603-323-8263 (home)
• Emilie Smith (Wellesley, MA & Chocorua) >> emilieandsons@comcast.net or 781-237-3484 (home)
• John Sedgwick (NYC & Chocorua) >> john@johnsedgwick.biz or 617-840-3220 (cell)

If you want to play in either tournament but need a partner, please let Kent, Emilie or John know, and they may be able to find you a partner.

Based on the success of last year’s structure, the first round of each tournament will be again structured as a round robin. The doubles teams that emerge from the round robin first round will then play traditional elimination round matches on Sunday (best 2 of 3 sets). The finals of both tournaments will be on Monday morning as always. Here’s the round robin schedule:

• Mixed Doubles round robin >> Saturday @ 9am to 12pm
• Men’s Doubles round robin >> Saturday @ 1pm to 4pm
