Team building
Coaches build their team to a value of 1150TV including all players, stars and inducements. They may then allocate additional skills to certain players using skill points available to their race. Primary skills cost 1 skill point and Secondary skills will cost 2 skill points. Skills may be stacked on up to one player for Tiers 1-5, and on up to two players for Tiers 6-7.

Please note: we will be using the Vampire team rules as per the September 2023 Spike! Magazine.

Venue & Directions
The tournament will be held at North Oxford Association Community Centre in North Oxford. Directions can be found below for a number of means of transport. The address is: Diamond Place, Summertown, Oxford, OX2 7DP. The venue is wheelchair accessible.

If you’re coming by car, both Summertown Car Park and Ferry Pool Car Park are next to the venue, but will cost you about £13-£15 for the full day's parking. Oxford Parkway Park and Ride is nearby, much cheaper, and has a bus which takes you to Summertown. I'd recommend that.

If you’re coming by train, the best stations to head to are Oxford or Oxford Parkway. Both have options for onward bus travel.

Spare player: Joe (morning), Mawph (afternoon)

Updated for all paid to date. Thanks all!

As for this, there will be a capacity but it’ll be around 40 - will confirm closer over the summer. It’s a good-sized venue!

Yes, there's definitely still spaces - we should be able to have up to 36 people, probably more. I'm going to cap at 36 for now, and then see if we have more space if it's needed.
