The UK Backgammon Federation
First of all, we would like to thank all 128 players for making 2019 a sell-out.
Many players took advantage of the cheap Thursday night hotel rates to arrive early and miss the Friday traffic. This resulted in over 70 players being in the room at 2pm on Friday for the first of our added money Freerolls, and what proved to be the very popular cashouts (an idea we stole from Roger Porter).
In less than a week many of you will be taking the annual trip to Blackpool to battle it out for the Imperial Cup.
Those of you who have entered should have,in the past couple of days, received an email with lots of important information to digest, please take a few minutes out to read it as there are some important changes this year.
First of all, a big thank you to the 102 players who attended the Blackpool Imperial Cup this weekend helping to make it such a successful event. We are proud to be able to say it is now the biggest single flight tournament in the UK, with players from Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, Romania, Hungary, Ireland and Singapore making the journey to join us.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
