Now that the idea that of holding a tour event in Aberystwyth have been
disbanded (were we all really going to go there? I think not), perhaps this
idea of numbered shirts for should also be put by the way side (for now).
Only two teams (in the top 8 of the tour) must have numbers, UTI and Catch
22 and that's for World's. We (UTI) probably won't have our World's shirts
ready for the start of the tour and I guess Catch won't either. Hence some
of our players will have non-numbered shirts for the early part of the tour.
Does the BUF really think we (the tour) will benefit from the top 8 teams
wearing numbers?
I thought the point of numbers was to differentiate between players. At
International tournaments when you play against teams and players you don't
know numbers are useful for identifying players. With the small base of
players currently in the UK, where most players know most others, are
numbers necessary?
If teams want to have numbers on their shirts then go ahead, but lets not
make it compulsory!
As for Paolo in pink hosiery, I think I better take a rain check on that
one, those legs, be serious!

Embroidered shirts?
Next you'll be passing a motion that all players wear frilly
pink hosiery to satisfy your paedophilic desires.

Happy New Year All,
This is rumour control (guess who watched Alien3 last
night)
Some of the tour venues have been fixed;
Tour 2 - Sheffield
Tour 3 - Edinburgh
Tour 4 - Southampton
The tour bids from Swindon and Aberystwyth have gone all
'Pete Tong' and so
I am looking for anyone interested in hosting a tour event.
Do not just go
off and book somewhere - speak to me first; but be rest
assured contingency
plans are being put in place.
Be aware that there are likely to be some changes in the
tour rules; and you
will be informed of these soon, however most are pretty
minor. However, it
is possible that teams starting a tour event in the top 8
will be required
to wear matching numbered shirts (both light and dark).
DO NOT go and buy
new kit just cos of this message - nothing is definite yet -
just be aware
of the possibility before you go and buy beautiful
embroidered shirts with
no numbers on. You will be informed in plenty of time.
Chris
Director of Competitions
