5A Girls Tennis Weather Contingency Plans

AURORA – Due to the inclement weather and heavy rain in Denver, the Colorado High School Activities Association has made changes to the 5A Girls Tennis Championships scheduled for this Thursday through Saturday at City Park in Denver. 

Thursday’s play was postponed, with the tournament being moved to two sites on Friday – Denver City Park and Denver Tennis Park – with a delayed start. Playbacks were unfortunately been cancelled, although a third place match will still be played. The tournament will return to Denver City Park on Saturday for the final day of play. 

The schedules for the Class 4A and Class 3A championships were also impacted with Thursday’s play being postponed.
