BD,
I am not going to comment on many of the issues that have been raised by some people on the group.
However, I was suprised that the first tour event of the year had a schedule that seemed to be based on having seadings correctly done - i believe they were done on last yrs nationals - and to make top 8 you had to win your group with no crossovers for teams that had come 2nd in their pool - especially the 2 unfortunate teams that ended up with fire 2 in their group! Like Kev i know the DoC had three seperate tournaments running this weekend and was in charge of schedules for all of them which is a lot of work for anyone.
As with the lucky huckers we turned up on sunday morning thinking we were playing abstract 2 after loosing what turned out to be the "head to head" match with them. Instead it seems that we won the group due to our goals difference, I might be wrong but i thought pool positions are done on the head to head match? I dont know how this happened but if rules like this are not clear to everyone can things like this be put on the ukua website?
I am sorry if some teams played games without their water container filled, the juniors filled up as many as we could find throughout the weekend when we were not playing or warming up/down.
I was very disappointed to hear that someone had been rather rude to the TD during sunday about some of the issues. Coming over and shouting at someone when you're not happy simply isnt acceptable in my opinion and being constructive and finding solutions to any problems you have is a lot more productive.
Thanks to all the teams that we played over the weekend and Ed, Nick GB junior Manager __________________________________________________ BritDisc mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.ranulf.net/mailman/listinfo/britdisc Staying informed - http://www.ukultimate.com/informed.asp
