Regional Tourneys

<< < (5/5)

APAT:
On the contrary, the instruction to Casinos was to allow alternates in up to a maximum number of 80 runners for the first two levels, in line with the new gaming act.  APAT will review its position on this prior to the event in Walsall, however prior to this it is sensible that we follow GC guidelines.

Newportlad:
Cardiff turned away at least 2 latecomers who just missed the start of the event.

APAT:
That is a shame, but we will highlight the areas where communication fell down and improve on them for the second leg of the Regionals.  Thanks for the feedback.

Des,

I did mention it in my feedback post for Gala Bristol, but there has been no comment, that Gala still operate the policy that you must be in your seat at the start of the tourney (hence their tournaments tend to start late!).

Will you be taking this up with the Gala management? To at least ensure that these APAT events are run to consistent rules across all venues, even if they don"t want to change their rules for all tourneys.

APAT:
Sorry, I missed that Alan.  My view is that APAT need to firm our position on this prior to Walsall.  We will communicate that position to both casinos within the tournament pack.  For the first event it was communicated as advice, as opposed to a hard rule.
