This comes straight from the Subbuteo Players Forum posted by Jeremy who is running the event.
“I am very proud to confirm that the Milton Keynes IO will be held at Stantonbury Campus ( Stantonbury Campus ), Stantonbury, Milton Keynes, MK14 6BN on Saturday 29th March 2008 ( Individual ) and Sunday 30th March 2008 ( Team ), flick – off 09:30 sharp both days.
The new venue is bigger and better than the 2007 event with the hall big enough for 7 badminton courts. There is catering on site including a licenced bar and a foyer for viewing the action from above!
Steve Hawkins and myself will run the tournament using the same tried and tested format as this year with groups of at least 4 players in all categories and properly organised competitions for those players who don’t qualify for the knock out stages of the Open/Vet tournaments.
There will be a visible clock this year and the organisers will have full use of a microphone, thus ensuring improved communication.
On the Sunday we will be employing stricter guidelines regarding preparation time between matches to ensure a smoother flowing event!
Once again we are very lucky to be using Nicky Chappell’s excellent San Siro pitches.
Closing date will be Tuesday 25th March 2008.
Cost of the event are as followed:
Open/Vets: £10.00
Under 19’s/15’s: £5.00
Teams: £20.00
For all enquiries please contact either myself at jeremybradley49@yahoo.co.uk or Steve Hawkins at stephen.hawkins@uk.gm.com
For all coach enquiries I recommend http://www.nationalexpress.com/and for all rail enquiries http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/
Milton Keynes is easily accessible by road and is at Junction 14 of the M1.
Being centrally located it is served by 6 airports: Luton, East Midlands, Stanstead, Heathrow, Gatwick and Birmingham”
Also I found a video on You Tube which shows last years tournament and a preview of the venue we used last year.
Any questions please contact either Jeremy or Steve for more information.
Pleas note as well that it will be daylight savings on the Sunday so don’t forget to set your clocks forward by one hour!
