Grimsby Tournament? HumberBowl 2013 (maybe)

Post by Oly1987 »

So was thinking about holding a Tournament in the sunny little corner of the world that is Grimsby. Found a possible venue at the St James Hotel which is a 2 minute walk from the train station and a 5 minute walk from my house. Rooms at the hotel are around £30 a night i believe. There is a bar/restaurant at the venue and its right in the middle of town near plenty of pubs/options for food. If i see enough interest generated i shall look at organising a weekend, sorting prizes etc.

It's about a three hour drive from mine, so me (and potentially the rest of the Geordies) could be interested, but it would very much depend on the date you decide on and what else is around it? Have you looked at the calendar and thought roughly when you're aiming for yet?

I'm in Hull a number of times each year, if this happened to co-incide with any of those then I'd be interested :-)

well i went in, had a look around, got a couple of ballpark figures for the room hire and getting more info posted to me so its really just a question of when is suitable for all (and not coinciding with other tournies)

Little Bump and a chance to post the potential basic framework for the ruleset for next year. Looking at making it 1.1mil roster, with 5 normal skills and 3 doubles skills. All skills are picked before the tournament start and no stacking skills. Doubles HAVE to be taken.
