Midland Open 2013 (Alvechurch, UK)

[David Constable]

Hello all

First, I know this is early, but it seemed a good idea to start now.

A big thank you to all who came, especially those who paid before, not on the day.

Some of the club are discussing a few changes for next year.

Playing on the day will only be allowed if the player has pre-paid on time. This allows us to sort out numbers, especially over food, which is given free.

We are looking at changing to the last weekend in May or the first in June, but the actual date needs sorting out nearer the time, possibly late January 2013.

Due to the continuing tactics of one person in particular over time, not only at this competition, but others as well, the question has arisen as to if we should ban certain people, or introduce timers, more to follow.

David,
I can't say I feel either of these changes to be necessary, but look forward to discussing them.

H - the PAWS summer competition is usually around the first or second weekend in June. This has been delayed for a number of reasons this year.

This year Roll Call and Sittingbourne are on 9 and 10 June as well

Thanks.

Yes, we were originally later, but moved because of Sheffield. Personally I think the date is probably OK, as long as it is not a bank holiday, however Karl is still concerned about potential weather problems.

As Legion at Bath looks like not running again at the end of April, at least it would give us the last weekend in April or the first weekend in May.
