Cary, NC- The Polar Doubles Tennis Tournament was pushed back a week due to all the rain we had on the original date.This past weekend, even with the snow, The Cary Tennis Center was able to have the tournament from Friday the 12th, and finishing on Sunday, Valentines Day.
Friday’s matches were able to play before the snow began and Saturday was a bit hectic getting the courts ready after the snow. All Saturday’s matches played from 3pm to 8pm.
Guess it really turned into POLAR weather for this event after all!
