No USTA League Nationals this weekend, but Mixed Nationals the following two weekends

We had a flurry of Nationals all four weekends in October, but we get a break this weekend before 2018 Nationals wraps up with 18 & Over Mixed next weekend in Mobile, and 40 & Over Mixed the following weekend in Orlando.

The new format for Nationals has gotten a lot of positive feedback and now we get to see how it will work for Mixed.  One thing that is different for Mixed from most of the others is just three courts are played, vs five courts for nearly all the Adult Nationals.  Just three courts can make for closer team scoring, so it might make for closer standings and more tie-breakers being used to determine who advances.

For those headed to Mixed Nationals, I can do reports to help you scout and prepare just like I did for Adult Nationals.  And I'm pleased to say that a number of teams that got reports did make the semis, and there were even two that won it all.  My reports don't guarantee success, but they can help you maximize your chances.  Contact me if interested.
