Farmers National Bank/Heart of Kentucky Tennis Open...
Tournament Description | 2010 Schedule | Benefactors
Held
in August each year, this is one of the most competitive legs of the
Central Kentucky Tennis Series.
The tournament is open to anyone but CKTS members are also vying for points on a circuit that includes tournaments in Harrodsburg, Danville, Elizabethtown, Liberty, Campbellsville, Bardstown and Glasgow. The competition is fierce but there are plenty of divisions and levels to give every entry a fighting chance.
Champions of each division get a trophy and all players get a T-shirt to commemorate their participation and visit to Lebanon. CKTS members that win points races are honored at a banquet in November each year.
There is no general admission for spectators and parking is free. Entry fees are $15 for non-CKTS players in singles and $10 per non-CKTS player for doubles. Entry fees are discounted to $12 and $8 respectively for CKTS members.
The tournament might be re-scheduled if there is inclement weather and entry fees are non-refundable. The contingency date is Sat., Aug 28.
The tournament is held at the beautiful Graham Memorial Park, Marion County High School and Idle Hour Park and both locations are close to dining and lodging facilities. There are numerous amenities to serve the youngest children and oldest adults at Graham Memorial Park, including the Lebanon Aquatic Center with its 100-foot winding water slide.
