2010 Houston Shootout Series
| WHAT: | Prior to the 2010 season the tournament directors of AVA, Houston Juniors, Texas Tornados and Willowbrook got together and worked out a plan for all of their facilities to work together and commit all of their teams to a series of 4 events so that teams would no longer have to guess where the competition would be on a given weekend. The vision is for all the clubs in the city of Houston to meet 4 weekend a year at the same tournaments to insure good competition for everyone while limiting the travel and keeping the costs low. |

| WHEN: | January 16th January 30th February 27th April 10th There will be a morning session and an afternoon session each Saturday. If more court space is necessary a Sunday morning wave will be added. There will be no playing late into the evening on Sundays. |
