The month of August marks the beginning of some new CHAIR TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES in Dallas. The chair training will take place at Highland Park High School during the school's fall dual matches. There will be an instructor at every match and anyone is welcome to participate. The only requirements are that you be a certified USTA official and desire to learn to do chair officiating. Here are the dates for the chair training:
August 23 Opportunities at 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m.
September 3 3:30 p.m.
September 10 3:30 p.m.
September 20 3:30 p.m.
September 24 3:30 p.m.
September 27 3:30 p.m.
October 4 3:30 p.m.
This chair training is invaluable for advancement in ITA officiating and provides a great opportunity to also attend the Texas Section Chair Academy in May, 2014.
There will also be a special CHAIR EVALUATION OPPORTUNITY on October 5th. If you are needing an evaluation there will be a certified evaluator on hand to provide you with an eval. Reservations are required for this evaluation.
To participate in either the chair training or the evaluation, email Randy McDonald at rmtennis@yahoo.com or call him at 214 796 7402
