Event Policies

This event is held on the Newport Harbor High School campus, so typical school rules apply. No dogs on campus. Restrooms are located in the boy’s and girl’s locker rooms. The campus is shared with other students, so other activities may be in progress while we are having match play. The goal of the event is to provide an opportunity for more kids to get experience with Verified Match Play and establish their UTR score.

Sportsmanship

NHHS Booster Club Representatives will be present at each event. Players and their parents must adhere strictly to the USTA Code of Conduct. Only the highest level of sportsmanship will be allowed.
