A Tournament Pass (registration fee) is required to play in any tournament over the weekend, apart from the Newcomers Tournament, which has a one-off £10 registration fee. Registration must be paid by May 24th. Players entering the Intermediates flight should have an Elo rating of 1650 or less. If your Elo rating is currently higher than 1650 but you still wish to enter the Intermediates, please email the Tournament Director and your case will be considered. There is no restriction on players entering the Masters flight.

Open Tournament: Masters: £50 entry and £20, £50, £100 and £200 optional pools. Intermediates: £20 entry and £10, £20 and £50 optional pools. Players may enter any three adjacent pools in the Masters, and any or all of the pools in the Intermediates.

Newcomers Tournament: £10 registration fee.
