Just flagging that we have an excellent Congress coming up alongside the Isle of Wight Masters. It's been a little overlooked in light or the strong Masters field. We will have around x40 DGT Smart Boards just for the congress so it's a great chance to get a chance to play on them.
Hotels are great near the venue still at £55PN with breakfast.
A 22 Fast Cat return would be £31.50 from Portsmouth after the 20% player discount.
Entry is £45 rising to £55 on December 1st. Excuse the slightly higher cost, we are on a very thin budget and need to ensure the event is a success in it's first year.
You will be able to spectate on the Masters in the room when you finish your games and watch on screens outside of the playing hall.
