Who can participate?
The tournament is open to players rated between NTRP 3.5 and 4.5 (or up to UTR 7). This corresponds to players ranging from beginners with some experience to those who participate in low to medium-level tournaments. If you can reliably hit the ball in the strings, this is the event for you!
