People have been asking about this and I still need to firm up a few bits and pieces but so far the plan is for another low budget, no frills tournament.
Plan:
Saturday 9th November: ABC Tournament - players will be seeded (experienced, intermediate, beginner) then bob for apples to decide teams on the day, there should be a fairly even split across all teams and with a bit of luck
Starts at 10am! Don't be late!!
Sunday 10th November: Throwins/something hangover friendly?
Weather: Showers
Registration: Initially capped at 30 individuals - should be able to squeeze 4-5 Swiss rounds and double elim in. Register here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1yxWkfzxOzYD-Yk9cERiMnxlrj4o0H7qnK5FbZ-0... I will update the list below

In the diary
Updated with a better idea of what's going on. Non-Manchester players booking travel - please see the note about the court, hoping to have this sorted ASAP.
Have given Scotland the heads up about this, will let other regions know/Facebook event once the court is booked.

Will keep an updated list of players on the event page and in the original post
Thanks for those that have signed up already, will update the list tomorrow morning.
Have invited Birmingham too, I think, through their Facebook page. If anyone can make contact with individuals there and ask them to get the word out that would be much appreciated!
Sorry to mess it up Andy, I can't play work won't let me have it off even though I requested it 3 weeks ago :-(
That sucks, hope you can still swing by for a beer or something later on?
Srs? Look up your rights and write a strongly worded letter, then shit in the envelope and leave it on their desk.
It's because it's Whitby the weekend after an they won't let me have 2 consecutive Saturdays, I kicked off but it's a no, finish at 4 so will be down by 5pm
Assuming everyone turns up, what's the plan if the number of players is not divisible by 3?
See how many turn up, there are a handful of maybes in Birmingham deciding tomorrow I guess + Landslide as a maybe. Need to ask Arthur tonight if he fancies playing and Adam if he's back. There may be a shuffle team, or if we're 1 over, I might just sit out and ref at people all day.
Shuffle team could be fun, or do what Joe did in Brum and have a rotating sub from the correct category.
We should assign groups such that the number of C equals the number of teams, Cs need as much court time as possible.
Good idea !
I looked further down the page and it was there.....I think it worked.
It would be prudent to bring out ye olde list of team names not yet used...
*Steals "wet for net".*
hope i get a good C player, someone like Emyr....
Up to 24 now!
