The tournament is open to players with or without a USTA ranking.  Players without a USTA ranking must enter at the level they would be ranked at if they had a USTA ranking.  Doubles players must enter at the level of the highest ranked partner.  Singles players must enter at their current USTA ranking or higher.  Players cannot play at a level lower than their current ranking.  You may verify your ranking at National.USTA.com.  Refunds will not be made to disqualified players.

Pilot’s service focus is to promote awareness of brain-related disorders and to work closely with national and international organizations that support this focus.  Alzheimer’s, and other forms of dementia, developmental disabilities, substance abuse, and brain injuries are only some of the causes of brain-related disorders.

The Pilot Foundation of Hawaii is a non-profit IRC §501(c)(3) organization, the charitable arm of all Pilot Clubs in Hawaii. 

The Foundation, established in 1990, furthers Pilot’s humanitarian efforts through the disbursement of grants and scholarships to qualifying recipients.  It is also the vehicle through which funds are disbursed to Pilot Clubs in Hawaii to do their charitable project work.

Some of the organizations Pilots in Hawaii have supported through “hands-on” service projects are:
    • Alzheimer’s Association
    • Institute for Human Services
    • Lanakila Rehabilitation Center
    • Leeward Women’s Shelter
    • Responsive Caregivers of Hawaii
    • Salvation Army Angel Tree
    • Special Education Center of Hawaii
    • Special Olympics of Hawaii
    • Special Angels
    • Windward Senior Day Center

Information for Grants and Scholarships is available upon request.
