Andy Platt Can you cancel it and let someone with an Owl Licence create it? Charlie might be too busy to look at it. Also, I ran a regional tournament a few years ago, I can send you my excel documents if you like

Fiona T

Fiona T tx Andy - can't see a way to cancel, but will sort something else out - either a live tourney in an atp gap, or will speak to an owly person. Excel stuff sounds useful - will grab you on messenger at some point :)

Fiona T

Fiona T Right folks, due to the mismatch in regional representations, I've done some jiggery pokery to ensure we've ended up with a slightly better balance.

Please see https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PLMw2tUkivch9pm9_FKydtSMzIQCZ5j7udS8Q1TmKZE/edit?usp=sharing

Your original region is recorded for posterity.

Alex - as I hadn't heard from you, I've stuck you in with the waifs and strays.
John - you've been moved back to the North West from where you can play for Outer Mongolia

Games are best of 3. To get an even number of players, I've dropped out.

*This is a team game*

For the first round, you will play someone from a different region. Your team's score will be calculated as #wins/#players. At the end of the round, we'll say goodbye to the two lowest scoring regions, which will leave 4 regions for the semi-finals.

Draw will be in aptochat when I get my act together and find a suitably glamorous assistant.

Format will be best of 3 standard 15 rounders with the winner advancing through to round 2.

Two weeks for sign up, then I will do the draw in apto chat. Any questions, fire away!

*Choose your home, birthplace or whatever you feel you belong - I won't be demanding proof!
