  Overall Experience
Organisation of tournament schedule and planning very disappointing. Allocation of matches over a five day period where only 1 match per day, and having to sit out days because of withdrawals, then 4 matches on Sunday. Premature canceling of play on Saturday at 11:00 when the sun came out in full at 12:00 with play possible till dark (18:00). Then giving the excuse on Sunday to start all doubles at 2 all because of lack of time; what happened during the rest of the week's days when conditions were perfect?

Scheduled the play to take place at a venue with only two (2???) playable courts because of maintenance and normal coaching taking place. Two courts??? There are lots of open courts around CT available for play. Suggested by official that it was to save "travel time and costs" but what about parents that have to book extra accommodation, travel to and from venues and other parents having to change flights because of the Sunday mess? Their response: it is a 08:00 to 17:00 tournament which was published before-hand on tournament registration page so those traveling should have known in advance. Agreed. But then why do you call play off at 11:00 (IN THE MORNING) if the play is scheduled to take place till 17:00?

Makes no sense. Is the reason why WC tennis numbers dwindling - Gauteng Marks Park Grand Prix this weekend had almost three times the number of entries. How will the kids get anywhere when doubles is left to three quick-fire matches starting at 2 all, with high number of entrants withdrawing beforehand due to travel commitments? On a weekend with a mini maybe, but not a tournament that ran over 5 days, of which only one morning was lost to rain.

Can do better and our kids deserve better.
