Club News- Teams: email sent March 3

Dear Members,

As we prepare for the upcoming season, we want to provide an update on our competitive teams and tryout process. Due to court resurfacing, we do not have the same court availability as previous years, so tryouts for some teams will take place at alternate sites. Players with proven records will receive communication from Matt excusing them from the tryouts, to allow for others to have more court time/opportunity.

🚨 Important: If you have already been contacted by Matt stating that you do not need to attend tryouts, please do not register. Court space is tight this year.

Teams & Tryouts

We have five competitive teams this season:

Intercounty B (Tryouts required, if player hasn't heard from Matt)

Intercounty C (Tryouts required, if player hasn't heard from Matt)

Ladies Evening (Tryouts required, if player hasn't heard from Matt)

Ladies Daytime (Returning players automatically re-added; new players must contact Matt)

Intercounty Daytime (55+) (Returning players automatically re-added; new players must contact Matt)

🔗 Full details on each team can be found here: Moore Park Tennis Team Info

Tryout Registration & Format

Sign-up for tryouts opens on March 24 at 7:00 AM via CourtReserve.

Spots are first come, first served, with a maximum of 16 players per tryout.

If tryouts reach capacity, each player will receive one hour of court time.

If tryouts reach capacity, Matt will let you know which hour to attend

Non-Tryout Teams (Ladies Daytime & Intercounty 55+)

These teams do not require tryouts. Rosters will be based on last year’s teams, with additional players added after discussions with Matt and the captains.

👉 If you are new and interested in joining one of these teams, please email Matt at mooreparkpro@gmail.com.

Team Captain Selection

Once rosters are finalized, players interested in being captains will put their names forward. The team’s core players will vote, and each team will have two co-captains.

Substitutes & Alternate Players

Teams with more players than available roster spots will have subs.

If a team reaches capacity, additional players may be placed on the sub list, allowing them to fill in when needed.

C team players that get called up as subs for the B team can only sub up twice. After that they stay on the B team.

Final Notes

If you have any questions about tryouts, teams, or eligibility, please reach out to Matt at mooreparkpro@gmail.com.

Looking forward to a great season!
