From the website:

#5. If for any reason you have a concern that monitoring the hand shake may be an issue and you feel it would be better to leave the court area, leave the court as you have been previous to the implementation of this initiate. [The form developed for this eventuality must be completed - click http://www.miaa.net/Sportsmanship-Ha...port-Form.pdf]


If "any reason" suffices, then I would just say that my (and my partner's/partners') safety is an issue and we will be following the previous procedure.

Also, doesn't the noun form of "initiate" only apply to fraternity pledges and the like? :confused:

There is only one thing I can say about the people in charge of the MIAA, and that is that they are:


MORONS!!

MTD, Sr.

MIAA should hire police officers with black and white stripped shirts to monitor the handshakes.
