ROUND 5 - details to note

Good day to you fellow En Garde Champions league players!!

As the registration for ROUND 5 draws to a close (still a few hours left if you have not entered yet) we thought it would be good to point out a few things with regard to playing your matches.

As before, we will be posting a link to the table of the draw and you can go there and create your own notecard for your matches. This seemed to work well last round and is much more efficient.

With regard to the deadline for matches to be played, this will be 6pm slt on Saturday 26th April. Please remember that this is your league and the matches being played within this time frame is your responsibility. Again as we are a slightly shorter session, please aim to arrange and play matches earlier in the week (even I managed to do this last round!!??) So please do try and schedule your games early. Any matches not played will be reviewed by the committee.

The final will run as an eight player event. We felt the four player final was ace and nice that so many of you turned out to support your peers. Eight finalists will however make this more of a fun and engaging happening, and at the same time not monopolizing on your SL Sunday. We hope that changing the number of players in the final will mean we can have this regular event without us all having to give up several hours in our weekends to do so. We appreciate that everyone has a first life and therefore we need to find a number that works for the collective!! This also shows how important the qualifying matches are!!

The final will be held at 11am slt in Heart of Dragons on 27th April. This will be the regular venue for the finals. Many thanks to the game/sim owners who have previously hosted the finals. The final will be played as single elimination - and the team game will be too!!! The seeding is done by random draw on a tournament board.

That is all for now folks, the draw for preliminary matches will be posted by 10am slt today.......

Be well and much fun!
