Scottish Championship

Post by Roger de Coverly » Sun May 02, 2010 10:30 am

They are using a 9 rounds in 7 days format.

I don't find two rounds a day a problem but with 9 am start times ..... :)

I'm not keen on the 9.00am start either and I'm the organiser!!!

Unfortunately we were let down on a venue and had to find another at short notice. With a very limited budget our choices were very restricted.

The 9 rounds in 7 days is a bit of an experiment and if repeated we would try to start all rounds an hour later but this was not a real option at that venue.

We have tried to keep the entry fees down and make the events attractive.

Please consider entering.
