Just a quick note to say I’ve updated the original post. Firstly I’ve added the word Cup to the title so when it’s advertised externally it will be easier to see it is a Blood Bowl event. I’ve also updated the price as, thanks to a combination of badgering the Spiky Chairman and gathering a enough prizes at no real cost, the ticket price is reduced to £10 per person.

Sorry for the delay in answering this but as Firebreather said we have enough space to fit in plenty of coaches. I don't see space being an issue as long as we can make complete teams of four. I will put the full rules pack up shortly but I'm just battling with the best way to run the pairing. Although I liked the idea of all four players from one team taking on another team each round there are a few issues with this type of format and it looks like I'm going to go for a simple swiss pairing. The team builds will be the same as for the Spiky Open 2010, the rules pack can be found here: http://www.spikyclub.com/e107/page.php?37I'll add details for payment when the pack is up.
