In the present age of competitiveness, it is more and more important for our juniors to participate in International meets. Only a privileged few nowadays can take part in the International (I.T.F.) events because of the huge costs involved in foreign travel. Not only do they lose out in gaining direct entries, in most cases they have to play qualifying rounds.
The official accommodations are Hotel The Sojourn, Stadia Inn and Hotel Ananya.
The tournament will follow the guidelines laid down by the “International Tennis Federation”.
Only Boys and Girls born between 1 January, 2007 and 31 December, 2012 can participate. Players cannot
participate unless they have reached their 13th birthday before the start of the Main Draw.
