CAPL Open - Saturday 29th June 2013

[Steve McCann]

The CAPL Open will take place on Saturday 29th June; this is open to all CAPL members in line with the CAPL constitution. The field will be split into two draws, one starting at 11am and the other at 1pm.

You can still enter this event for £3 up until Thursday 27th June, however I need to have the money in my possession by then for you to be entered. I will be at the Cambridge Snooker Centre on Thursday evening to collect entries; or you can leave a list of names to be entered along with the entry money in a sealed envelope behind the bar at CSC for me to collect. If you do this, then text me to let me know you have done so. (my phone number can be found in the committee section of the www.cambridgeareapoolleague.co.uk website)

You can still enter on the day for £5 but must arrive by 10.45am at the latest. We cannot hold up the tournament waiting for stragglers. I won't be taking any money on Friday 28th June, if you haven't paid by then you'll have to pay on the day at 10.45am like everyone else!

All players must register with the top table in advance of their start time, if you are running late for reasons outside of your immediate control then call me. A full listing of players by start time will appear on the website on Friday 28th June by 1pm.

If you think there is a chance that you will be late then feel free to text me (making clear who it is) on the morning to confirm you will be attending and you will be put in the draw.

Those entering on the day with be randomly put in either the 11am start or the 1pm start, and therefore may be waiting for a couple of hours to play.

The start times above are later than usual, therefore will be confirmed at 1pm on Friday along with the entry list.

There will be a plate competition open to all CAPL members which is estimated to start at 3pm.

Is this event seeded? If not the players who have already entered should start later for already paying and entering when originally asked to do so?

Wow that looks like a pretty poor turnout! 25 players what's that 2-3% of the registered players in the league? A 3rd of the field is from one team!

[monkey]

I am sure there will be more.

[schmack]

there are always late entries

and that facility should be allowed. or should it? i am not sure if numbers would be increased if the comp registration deadline was the absolute deadline for this too?

i agree mr magic that is is lower than normal but the summer open is usually less well attended

i think people tend to wait until nearer the time to decide if they can make it or not what with work, the weather, other halves and wimbledon (OK maybe not wimbledon!)

tekno81 - that way all the CSC (A) players will be in one half! i would be up for turning up late just to avoid playing them!!

It's a lot later this year? I remember the only one I played in being the same day as the champions league final.

The biggest problem is the handicap open as lower league players have more chance of getting through a few rounds even to the money stages so why would you want to start of scratch with say the csc a player and get beat,at least if handicaps are fair then you have more chance
This will also probably happen with the singles league and people will see how noshs handicap league goes as some sort of thing might happen there.

Also some people do stuff on Saturdays and then you'll have people doing stuff on Sundays so if moved you'll never please everyone

[tekno81]

Well I will take a punt and say someone from CSC A will win lol

[tekno81]

Does anyone know the format for how many frames matches are please?

[monkey]

It changes depending on the round and maybe also depending on the number of entries. Tends to start as first to 4 and reaches first to 7 for the final. The link below will give you some idea.
