MYRTLE BEACH OPEN UPDATE:
Friday - The MEG - Canceled
Currently, the forecast for Myrtle Beach has improved for Saturday and Sunday.
I just got off the phone with the City. They are now going to wait till Thursday to make a decision as there are several sporting events this weekend. However, at this point it looks like we will NOT be able to have courts on the beach.
Trevor Crabb, Taylor Crabb, Chaim Schalk, Taylor Sanders, Nick Lucena and many other of the Open players are here. Others have also paid for hotels, flights, etc. So we are still going to TRY and do this.
GOOD NEWS: Saturday we will only be able to have Open & AAA Divisions at this time.
BAD NEWS: Due to no courts on the beach. NO AA & BB Divisions Saturday.
UNDERSTAND: We still may have to cancel at the last minute even on the day of the event, but we are going to try and get it done. So if you need to cancel hotels, flights, etc. please do so. We will only refund the entry fee.
REFUND: If you have paid and your division canceled you will get a VENMO refund. Please be patient.
CURRENT PLAN: (This too could change)
Saturday:Men’s and Women’s Open & AAA Only. Please let me know ASAP If you are not going to play.
Sunday: Junior Tournament is ON. Understand, the City and weather could cause that to be canceled also. Most are within driving distance and the forecast for Sunday is much more favorable.
Sunday COED: Let me know if you plan on being here and still like to play. If we have enough nets we can possibly play. It will depend on the final Junior Numbers.
Stay tuned. Thank you for your understanding in this difficult situation.
