Chair Training Opportunities Coming Soon--Sign Up Now If You Are Interested

There will be some fantastic chair training opportunities coming during the months of September and October here in the Metroplex.  Chair training is offered in conjunction with the Highland Park High School tennis team's dual matches.  Each participant will get to chair at least two matches at each dual match.  You must be a USTA certified official in order to be considered for this training.

Here is the information about the training:

*  Training begins on September 6, 2011 and continues through October 14, 2011.  The match opportunities are listed below.

*  You will receive on court training by a USTA/ITA chair official.  You will do chairs at your first training opportunity.

*  You will not be paid for the training but it will give you invaluable experience if you are interested in doing chair officiating in the future.

*  Those who have completed this training will have the inside track to be accepted into the Texas Section Chair Academy which will be held in May, 2012.

*  Those who have completed this training will also be considered for ITA work in the spring 2012.
