I send the following material to all persons who have an interest in umpiring. You may give a copy of this application to all interested USATT members. If you are involved in running a touranemnt, obtain a copy of the USATT's tournament guide from the USATT headquarters. There are four levels of umpires: club, regional, nat'l, & int'l. Please refer to the club & regional qualification sheet attached for details. A current USATT membership is a prerequisite for becoming an umpire. The ITTF rule book (an abbreviated pocket version of the handbook/yearbook) is furnished to you when you apply to take the club umpire exam. I would suggest that you obtain the ITTF handbook/yearbook to have a complete set of all the rules and laws of table tennis (published every two years). there is a very good companion book called handbook for match officials which is a must for those who wish to gain insight into understanding the reasons behind the rules. The publications are available from USATT headquarters in colorado. I would be happy to answer any further questions you might have on becoming an umpire, fell free to call or write me for any type of help you might require.

Letter from the Editor......................p. 2 U.S. Open Update............................p. 2 Tournament Results.........................p. 2 Ratings............................................p. 3 For Sale...........................................p. 3 The Happenings at Headquarters.pp. 3-4 Letter From the Editor The Anaheim Hilton Bonus Package It has come to my attention that many athletes planning to participate in the U.S. Open believe the price of $75 a night at the Anaheim Hilton and Towers is a little too high to pay for lodging while in California and are seeking shelter elsewhere. Let me present two words regarding the Anaheim Hilton and Towers; Convenience and Bargain. When you're playing in a tournament, the last thing any competitor wants to worry about is tardiness to the tournament. The Anaheim Hilton is the closest hotel to the Anaheim Convention Center. Aside from allowing you to avoid manuvering around the constant traffic jam of Los Angeles, it will allow friends, family and children the freedom to come and go from the Hotel to the Convention Center as often as they would like. The hotel contains a pool, workout facility and six different restaurants for your travel companions to enjoy, especially while you're sitting around watching other competitors all day. (Remember, they may not LOVE it like you do!) Many people aren't aware of the Anaheim Hilton's four-star quality. They also aren't aware that a normal room at the Anaheim Hilton costs approximately $180 per night. USATT members are being asked to pay only $75 per night, less than half of the original cost. A family of four (as long as they are related) or two adults can all stay in the same room at the Hilton for that price without paying any extra fees. What a bargain! I would lastly like to humorously remind most of you that you have relationships with people -- the kind of relationship is irrelevant. Invite them to this one! This tournament gives you the perfect situation to invite those that you love to enjoy a glamorous hotel for a bargain basement price and all the sites located conveniently nearby while still participating in your favorite sport! I'm sure that many of you have sworn to never bring anyone along on these trips because past experiences have been something you'd rather forget. Not this tournament! The hotel is absolutely exquisite... and romantic. How does a second honeymoon sound? Staying at the Anaheim Hilton and Towers will be well worth it. See you in June! Anahiem Hilton and Towers Perks The Right Facilities 1,600 deluxe guest rooms 100 luxurious and oversized suites Six restaurants located within the hotel 25,000 sq. ft. Hilton Sports and Fitness Center (Contains state-of-the-art exercise equipment and weight machines, a pool and spa, aerobics studio, basketball gym, steam baths, sauna, tanning and massage). The Right Location The Anaheim Hilton and Towers' prime location puts your group right in the center of Southern California's finest recreation, entertainment attractions and diversions. Attractions Close By: Disneyland Park (two blocks away by complimentary shuttle) Knott's Berry Farm Hollywood Universal Studios Movieland Wax Museum Catalina Island Professional sports at Anaheim Stadium Golf Tennis The finest sunny, sandy beaches of Newport and Laguna are also nearby. RATINGS Important Notice to Tournament Directors Since the implementation of ratings processing at USATT Headquarters, we've encountered situations where people who are not USATT members are playing in sanctioned tournaments. USATT Bylaw 3.7.1dictates that: Qualifications for entry. All entrants must have a valid membership as defined in by-law 2.2.1. Regulations require that we do not process ratings for any matches in which the player is a non- member or if his/her membership has expired. If this policy was adhered to there would be a delay in returning tournament results to the tournament director. It would also drastically affect those players who compete against non-members since their matches would not be calculated. Additionally, processing of these "non-members" also requires staff time that has not been paid for. To date, USATT has been processing the ratings for those "non-members" as a service to current members to ensure result continuity. However, on May 2 we will begin billing the host club for all non-members and expired members who participate in USATT sanctioned tournaments. InHouse Update Thank You For Your Patience We appreciate the patience of the tournament directors in receiving the ratings list prior to sanctioned tournaments. Because of various delays in the implementation of the ratings system, there was some backload of tournaments. We have worked it out and are now currently up-to-date on the processing of all tournaments. The following procedures will be used when processing tournaments: Prior to Tournaments: * Ratings lists will be sent to directors 10 to 14 days prior to tournaments (unless otherwise specified by a director on the Tournament Sanctioning Request form). Following Tournaments: * To speed processing time following tournaments, we would appreciate tournament directors to closely adhere to the instructions sent with the ratings list and submit the tournament report within seven days of completion of the tournament. REMINDER: All players must have valid USATT memberships. Otherwise, the club will be billed for players in violation. The Happenings At Headquarters NEW MEMBERSHIP RATES FOR 1994 In all areas of our lives, everything just seems to be getting more and more expensive. The costs at USATT Headquarters over the past 10 years have doubled and in some cases quadrupled (see article below). In order to continue to provide programs and the quality services our membership deserves, the USATT Executive Committee approved a membership rate increase effective July 1, 1994. The Increase The following membership rates have been approved by the USATT Executive Committee and will be effective as of July 1: * Adult 1 Yr. $25.00 3 Yr. $60.00 * Junior 1 Yr.(w/oMag) $8.00 1 Yr.(w/ Mag) $12.00 * Family 1 Yr. $45.00 * Table Tennis Today Magazine Domestic $20.00 * Please Note that the two year adult membership has been eliminated. As a special consideration to long time members: A) Anyone who signs up for a three year membership will pay $60, which is $20 per year. Therefore, they keep the $20 a year rate. B) The rate increase will be effective July 1 after the U.S. Open giving many people the opportunity to renew at the old rate. Why An Increase? 1. From 1984 to 1994, cost of living has increased dramatically. For example, the cost of food, beverage, and household operations have risen 44 percent. 2. Mailing costs have doubled over the past 10 years. First Class Postal Rates, the primary method of mailing Executive Committee election ballots, membership cards and other membership material, have increased from $.22 to $.29 in the past ten years. Another postal rate increase from $.29 to $.32 is expected in the year 1995. Now that there are more registered members and with escalating postal increases, projected costs for 1994 mail is $31,000. (Continue P. 4) 3. Other variable expenses such as copying, printing, telephone and supplies have also increased since 1984. For instance, minimal printing costs have increased 400 percent from $9,500 in 1984 to over $51,000 projected for 1994.

USA Table Tennis pays $5,300 per year to provide headquarters and affiliated clubs with liability insurance. USATT provides insurance to clubs at no additional cost in order to prevent club directors from having to obtain cost prohibitive liability insurance on their own. Services Membership fees are "recycled" at USATT Headquarters so that you, our members and clubs, may reap the benefits. Generated revenue is spent specifically on the following: * Providing members with the latest information in the sport of table tennis. * Supplying members with adequate administrative support. * Operating the national computerized ratings system. * Covering the complete cost of both the U.S. Open and U.S. Nationals every year. These are two of the largest table tennis competitions in the U.S. * Paying liability insurance for affiliated clubs and sponsored events. * Providing forms and labels to clubs upon request. * Providing a 1-800 number for membership information. * Publishing bi-monthly magazine. * Sanctioning tournaments * Assisting th edevelopement of junior and grassroots programs. If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call or write USA Table Tennis Headquarters. We appreciate your suggestions because they only make us better.
