[BD] Seedings Argument Settled

2005-04-01 Thread Tom Styles
BD, Seeding teams is well hard and I certainly would want to do it for the tour. ;-) But if you fancy having a pop at guessing which teams will finish in the top 8 in which order then hurry on down to the Lookfly tour predictor now. http://www.lookfly.com/UltimatePredictor/UltimatePredictor2005.

this was the decision of the DoC due to lack of pitches, so am curious as to why a venue was accepted that didn't have enough space to accomodate all the teams and if this is likely to happen at the other tours where we should expect around 50 teams or even 60 if womens tour is on.

All, Some more minor changes to seedings. The schedule is not going to be available until the tournament due to doubts over a few of the pitches, which means we do not know which schedule we will be using. Ad PS Please do not count on these as they may change by Sat morning. Open

Because not all teams play events outdoors during the winter and the winter events are not UKU events the winter is thought of (at least by me) as pre season and could therefore be likened to 'friendlies' in football or other sports which have no effect on which league a team plays in next seaso

yo! The prob is pleasing everyone. The current format is bad for the teams trying to get into the top 16 (its worth being up there so you get to play games of a decent length, and so you don't have to be in a pool with a couple of walk over games). It was real tough for smash and grab last yea
