Introduction
In accordance with the schedule provided here, Season 7 of the NationStates Tennis Tour will continue with the grass court season. This thread serves as the sign-up thread for four tournaments: the Three Degrees Open (Tier 2), Salvador Hills Open (Tier 1), the Britonish Open (Tier 1) and the Mercedinian Open (grand slam).
Sign-ups will initially be open for the first two tournaments. Sign-ups for the last two tournaments will be open later in September.
*Tier 2 tournaments have special entry rules as it is designed for newcomers and lower ranked athletes. Only players below 500 points, or pairs with a combined total below 1,000 points may enter this tournament.
Sign-up procedure
Fill the sign-up sheet with your list of players - all nations are welcome to join. You do not need to fill out the entire list. You will also need to nominate a three letter code to represent your nation (e.g. Electrum - ETM).
Wild cards may be awarded, so ensure the person you want to see playing is listed in the top one or two slots of your sign-up (note: rankings points supersede sign-up listings). Wild card priority will be given to people who have roleplayed. Puppets must be declared - each person may control up to two nations in any tournament.
Sign-ups for each event will close in accordance with the schedule below. Feel free to edit your entries in a new post up to that deadline, making sure to clear out your old post.
Doubles sign-ups
Nations can submit pairs of players from their own nation, or submit pairs comprised of players from two different nations. There are no limits as to how many doubules athletes from a particular nation is submitted into a tournament. Any entries submitting mixed pairs without permission will be deleted from the draw. On the sign-up sheet, please indicate what nation the non-native player is from, e.g. Electrum would submit Sonya Gredello/Ricardo Toli (BRI).
In all tournaments, nations sending at least one pair from two different nations will be able to submit one additional pair than the maximum provided in the entry list.
