I think it's about time we organised a small invitational tournament, like the one Birmingham did a few weeks ago. 8 to 10 teams, wrap up by 6pm.
How does November sound? Thoughts?

Sal - Awesome for directing this event - shout if you need anything.
Can you create a list of who's doing what (prep/on the day) here please - reffing/format etc?
What's the maximum number of teams?
Best find out if anyone wants accommodation from the outset.
I'll do another Polobus veggie meal deal; will bring goals/corner boards/ref perch/duck whistle - as per the last one we did.
I haz goals and I think the duck call too.
Awesome Neil! I'll update this thread with the format and tasks when I get home. Any help will be greatly appreciated, I can't do it all on my own!
Just get another clipboard.
If we make a Master List we can template it for all future mini tournaments/new Directuer Sportfifs - IMHO everyone should have a go at some stage.
Right.
FORMAT:
4 round of 8 min Swiss, might cut to 3 if we're running late.
16-team elimination. Single or double depends on time.
Does that sound realistic? What did we do last time?
HOUSING: Who's available?
1. Salman: floor space for 2.
ROLES:
Score keeping: Salman
Head chef: Neil?
Head refs: ?/Salman
Musicbox: ?
Did I miss anything?
Musicbox
Have plenty of pa. WhAt ya needing? Can possibly get a sm rig over or bring missing stuff if we have it. Let us know what you're thinking/needing and I'll see what I can do.
Not sure what else I'm capable of helping with but I'll be around and try to be useful!!
Final bits:
Rob, are you ok for bringing the goals?
Neil, you've got food, corner boards, and ref platform on your list. Thanks!
I'm going to need someone to take pictures. Emma? Chan?
Neil is going to pick them up from me tomorrow. Do you need me to do anything? Do you want a spare laptop or owt for podium stuff?
8 mins? Surely with only 10 teams we can do 10 min round robin? 8 mins suck
we really dont need to do swiss at all, we have all day and flood lights.
Nate couldn't find a sitter so Ady and and Andy are with Lewis, not sure if we can sort out the other Hull guys so an extra from Holmsfirth or suttin could be helpful.
Could of called the team ALAN if they had all 4.
There are gonna be 11 teams maybe 12, single court round robin would be 11 rounds of 5 games each, allow 15 minutes per game with changeover and stoppages, that would be nearly 14 hours. I think we need swiss.
Still, not 8 min though. Gotta be 10 min Swiss.
10, not 8 minutes. That was assuming 16 teams.
We have 12 teams, how many rounds are you thinking?
4 rounds would be about 6 hours, then 10 games in the elim would be another 2 and a half hours, would mean finishing about 1830, sounds about right.
yes, 4 rounds, +/- 1 depending on how we're doing for time.
Finishing at 6:30, dinner at sandbar. (Can we get food discount?!)
They don't do food on weekends.
Bah, nevermind then.
Poplino's.
lets go into chorlton after...
Let's go to Levy after.
Who does food in chorlton? I'm quite keen on food...
(I should really do some work today)
