CT State Championships Ticket Exchange
I have deleted the data from the event that was to happen on Wednesday Nov 3.
PLEASE click the link below if you need to sell your tix, or ask for more!
As in the past, every family is required to purchase 2 tickets for the State Championships at approx $18ea. Since not every family can use BOTH or even one ticket, and some families need MORE than 2 tickets — we have set up a “Ticket Exchange”.
First come, first served. Please fill out the form. There is no guarantee that we can sell your unwanted tickets, or that we will have extra! (tickets are also sold at the gate). If you do NOTHING you will be charged for 2 tickets and can pick them up at the tennis courts on Wednesday when we’re loading the busses.
