State / Quota Selector and Basis for Selection to Southern Closed
As stated on page 52 of the USTA Southern Section Yearbook, "To qualify for the Southern Closed Championships, a junior player must play in the Joe Creason Jr. Qualifying Tournament in the singles age division that the player wishes to be considered for the State Quota to the Southern Closed Championships. Participation in the Joe Creason is mandatory unless waived in advanced by the Waiver Committee."
For 2010, Kentucky will have the following quotas
Boys 10s, Girls 10s-----4
Boys 12s, Girls 12s-----8
Boys 14s, Girls 14s-----10
Boys 16s, Girls 16s-----10

In 2010, Kentucky was #1 in the Southern Section for Junior Membership Growth Percentage. Therefore, Kentucky's quota was increased by 1 spot in each division.
