Foul Bowl 7, winner: Dementor, Khemri
What is it?: It is a NAF-sanctioned, 4 game, one-day tournament, with a random first round draw, followed by Swiss pairings for the remaining three rounds. As the name suggests, there is a definite leaning towards the often forgotten art of the floor blitz, a.k.a fouling. Roster submission will be via TourPlay and NAF sanctioning has been applied for.
When is it?: Saturday October 14th, 2023.
Where is it?: Firestorm Games, 121 Victoria Road, Swindon, SN1 3BD.
How much is it?: £25 for NAF members, and £30 for non-NAF members (including the £5 sign up cost when processed by a NAF representative). Please be aware that local parking isn't NCP levels of eye-watering, but is unfortunately public car parking only. I may be able to collect folk from the train station if you arrive at similar times. Alternatively, share cars if it is safe to do so and save the planet.
Why is it?: FoulBowl was the ingenious invention of infamous Blood Bowl coach FrogBoy. After FoulBowl 2, he disappeared into the distance, pockets bulging with loot and treasure, never to be seen again. However, persistent pestering and bribery (with the occasional threat of physical harm and kidnapping) from Goblin players, coaches and fans across the land prompted negotiations between myself and Señor Frog to begin. We have run four successful events including Foul Bowl 6 last year, which sold out pretty quickly and went really well, even with the extra precautions at the time.
tl;dr I missed FoulBowl, messaged FrogBoy asking if he’d run it again, got told no, but was given his full blessing to resurrect the format myself. We’re now in our third year of plagiarism.
Payments should be made via Paypal (friends and family) to haribo_21@hotmail.com. Please include the tournament name, your NAF name, NAF number, actual name and your telephone number. There will be no refunds for cancellations within two weeks of the tournament date.
We are limiting to thirty spots. As soon as we hit thirty paid up names, it’ll just be paid reserve spots up for grabs.

Note: In order to facilitate four games in one day there will be no allocated ‘lunch break’. If you are not bringing lunch with you, there are several fast food outlets, coffee shops etc. within walking distance of the store, but to keep the tournament flowing, 15 minutes between rounds is all that will be given.
Any questions, please ask. Feel free to private message if you're worried about any genius roster ideas being stolen by your equally Foul-minded opponents!
With regards to the ever-changing BB2020 landscape, any new rules released by Games Workshop between now and the event will be included/excluded as per NAF tournament guidelines, or at the Tournament Organiser’s discretion. Please check back to see any edits in red, which may have been made with this in mind.

I've a Foul record to defend, but it's too far out to say yet.

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.
Bribe level: good coffee.

Crazy. I'd retire from Foul Bowl and never return if I'd managed the result you got last time!

Sorry Jip, I can't come now. I've been invited to a wedding reception that night, so no chance I'll be able to play and then get to the reception venue

NAF ranking confirmed - a NAF representative emailed me from his fridge, so it must be important.
