Connecticut Shoreline Women's B Tournament

The Old Lyme CC and EPTC will host the Connecticut Shoreline Women's B Tournament on Saturday, December 6th. This is an APTA event. Charlotte Gilet is in charge of the APTA women's tournament schedule for Region II. She has worked to create "B" level events for the women in the region; this event will be one of three on this year's tournament calendar. We are hoping for participation from at least sixteen teams from around the state. The tournament committee is still working on details, but teams will be guaranteed multiple matches since there will be consolation and reprieve brackets in addition to the main draw. Entry fee will include balls, beverages, lunch, favors for all participants and prizes for finalists. More details will be forthcoming. Deadline for entries is November 30th.
