NTRP MEETING

Have you ever wondered?????
How you received your rating?
Why you were moved up when your partner wasn't?
Why if you lost all your matches, you were still moved up?
How you got your bench mark rating?
Why you were DQ'd?
How the ratings are computed?
Or have you just wondered??????
If so, this meeting is for you!

There will be a meeting Thursday night (June 3) @ 7:00 at Creekside Church, 2315 Roberts Lane in Florence to answer any questions you may have about your NTRP rating. Phil Meador is flying in from South Carolina especially for the Shoals area. I would love to have a large turnout. Please make every effort to attend. Please let me know if you can make it! My goal is 100.............

Phil serves as the TennisLink Coordinator for the USTA Southern Sectional League. Meador was the Chief Verifier for USTA South Carolina for a number of years. Some of you may have seen him at our State Championships in Mobile when we had verifiers. He currently serves on the USTA Southern League Committee, Southern NTRP Committee, the National Oversight Committee, and the National Longrange Planning Committee. In Georgetown, SC Meador works as a teaching pro where he coaches several youth teams.

His presentation “NTRP Myth Busters” has been presented all over the southern section with rave response.

If you want to gain an understanding of the computer ratings, here’s your chance!
