Golden Gauntlet UK 2016/17 *BESTERS WINS*

[Pipey]

Guess anything's possible but Jim is looking good for it...

52nd (subject to moves after the NAFC), when I've only played two tournaments, one a one-dayer with Vamps, the other as a fill-in on day 2 with 'flings?
I'll take that.

The trophy will be handed out at the NAF Championship at the end of the month. Is it too soon to engrave it...??

Is it too soon to engrave it...??

That will guarantee someone else winning it...

I think Pipey's cunning plan is to engrave Besters on the trophy in advance, thereby assuring Besters won't win it. Which means I think, mathematically, and assuming Itchen doesn't attend, that Pipey, playing a stunty team, is guaranteed to win, becoming in one daring move both the 2017 Golden Gauntlet Champ and the first stunty winner of the NAF Championship!

Now that I would like to see! I'd even volunteer to play him in the final, no wait.................

The other way I could do it is with Best Painted, Stunty Cup, Most Touchdowns and Most Casualties (60 points) plus a reasonable placing. Easy. And well spotted Speedingbullet

In response to a query - can anyone point me to the most up-to-date information regarding when a NAF trophy is awarded at a NAF event? Specifically regarding numbers of games and numbers of players.

Has this changed in recent years?

[Pipey]

From the 2017 updated sanctioning guidelines:
NAF Trophies may be awarded to the winner of any sanctioned tournament so long as it meets minimum attendance requirement... [if it has] 4 rounds or more, 12 coaches are required; if it has 3 rounds or fewer, 24 coaches are required.

Think that clears it up.

Does this mean that if you have won a tournament in the past that met these guidelines then you are entitled to a trophy or is allocation more random than that?

One for NAF staff to address?

Addressed and I now have my trophy

On a different subject, do I get any points for winning a painting competition at NAFC and when are you updating the final table?

[Pipey]

let me have a look at that. Best Painted Team is stated as the scoring prize don't forget.

More, commencement of 2017/18 award, plus final update to GGUK 2016/17 scores coming soon.
