The impact on tennis competition

DVTA

Neville Mears, the DVTA administrator, has surveyed the participants and come up with the following plan:
  • When DVTA gets permission the autumn season will resume.
  • No breaks for school or public holidays.
  • Up to 4 forfeits (instead of three)
  • Once autumn restarts the spring season will be decided upon, and more information will follow then.

The club received the following communique from NETJA.

NEJTA Statement Regarding the Abandonment of the Autumn 2020 Season

It is with great sadness that the NEJTA Committee must announce today that the Autumn 2020 season is officially to be abandoned. Due to the ongoing State of Emergency in Victoria on account of COVID-19, competition was forcibly suspended. We have now been left with a scenario where there are not enough weeks left to be able to salvage the season even in a reduced format.

Additionally, the original 1 June deadline for team submissions for the Spring 2020 season will not be adhered to and a new deadline will be formed at a later date.
The Committee is currently working on what format the Spring 2020 season will need to be as well as the form of compensation clubs will receive for the unfinished Autumn 2020 season.

The Committee will provide further updates going forward.


Regards,
Nathan Woods
Honorary Secretary NEJTA
