Title: WCOAP 2011 - Official USA Team Thread
Post by: Chipaccrual on July 15, 2011, 19:53:49 PM: APAT are very pleased to confirm that Beth MacInnes will be leading a team from the USA. This will be the first time the USA have entered a team in an APAT event, and if that wasn"t enough pressure, Beth has to put up with the competitive nature of her husband in the Canadian team. There could be quite a bit of banter in the Macinnes household over the next few weeks.

This thread will be updated by Beth regarding team selection.

CONFIRMED TEAM

Carey

It is likely to be single tables on Day 1 and the MTT on Day 2 plus maybe 1 or 2 single tables.

I know that Leigh and Tighty are putting together the structure, but nothing is finalised so don"t quote me on the above. Pretty sure that the last game will be the MTT

Title: Re: WCOAP 2011 - Official USA Team Thread
Post by: Careybear on July 31, 2011, 22:48:12 PM: I still got denied my time off work because there are too many off those 2 days already. So, Beth...is there anyone that you can think of that may be able to fill my spot? Or maybe I can ask to work half days both days...I"m really in a fix because i work for Lloyd"s TSB processing department but through a temp agency so if i call in they probably could just get rid of me right there because they know what i want the days off for. :( Other thing is my husband"s back is really bad and may go out on him at anytime...Any suggestions?

Post by: Careybear on August 24, 2011, 21:50:31 PM: Good luck to Team Usa...my heart (Paul) is there even though my body isn"t....hope he helps you gals out :)
