One-Day tournaments are played to completion in one day and use non-elimination draw formats.

Junior players may compete in as many one-day tournaments as they would like and their "best 3" Smash or SuperSet one-day tournament results will contribute to their USTA Virginia and USTA Mid-Atlantic standings and year-end rankings.
 

The three types of one-day tournaments are:
