I have contacted most teams regarding payment and confirmation of places but if i haven't let me know ASAP if you are coming or not. Teams with places DI1 DI2 Twin Peaks Fierce WIB Nessa's Team Skunks Squawks Sheffield Bradford Bliss Horrors Red Plymouth If your name isn't above you are not guaranteed a place unless you confirm ASAP that you are coming!! Here are a few details about the tournament although a tournament pack should be winging it's way to the team contacts as we speak. You should have had a message from me if i haven't got your address so please reply to it as i would hate for you to miss out on any of the fun in store for you. Firstly, the most important detail. The party is to held at the Fellon and Firkin on Saturday night from 8.00pm following on across the road at Carpe Diem's until 1.00am. This should give you plenty of opportunity to celebrate Valentines Day and there will be no sneaking home early to get a competitive advantage against those of us who are less restrained (God help my team on Sunday morning). For those arriving on Friday night we are meeting from 7.30pm onwards at the Feast and Firkin where you will be given accommodation etc. We will be there until last orders so should you be arriving any later could you let me know so that i can give you accommodation details directly. The Captains meeting is at 8.45am on Saturday with the first games at 9.00am. We will be playing from 9.00 am until 5.00pm although we may finish earlier on Sunday. The tournament is held at the University of Leeds Sports Hall the directions for which are outlined below as well as in the tournament packs. Parking is available in the university car parks which you should pass on your way to the hall. Entrance is via the main entrance to the university. Then Follow the road round to the left, keep following it round to the right passing car parking on your left. The Sports Hall is around the corner to the right. Directions into Leeds have been confused somewhat by the construction of the AI-MI link road and the renumbering of the M1and M621. The golden rule is follow the signs for the City Centre until you get off the Motorway (especially M1 northbound). FROM THE SOUTH - MI NORTHBOUND The MI becomes the M621 as you near the City Centre. Get off at the exit sign posted City Centre, do not try to follow the MI north when it splits, follow the road as it turns into the M621. Once you get off at the sign for the City Centre, follow the signs for City Centre and Universities. Pass under the railway bridges keeping in the outside lane and enter City Square. Take the exit signposted Universities to the right (the main Post Office on your right). Turn right at the next set of light into East Parade. Travel up East Parade in the LEFT lane, straight across the Headrow into Calverley Street (Town Hall should be on your left). Continue up Calverley Street passing the leeds General Infirmary on your left. At the second set of lights turn right signposted A660 Skipton and University of Leeds. At the next lights turn left onto Woodhouse lane. The main entrance is a few hundred yards on your left by the Parkinson Building ( big white building with a clock tower) FROM THE WEST - M62 EASTBOUND Exit M62 at junction 27 to the M621. Exit the M621 at junction 2 (signposted Harrogate,York and Skipton). At the major roundabout take the third exit to City Centre and join the Inner Ring Road. Take the exit signposted Skipton A660 and universities which comes out on Woodhouse lane. Main University entrance is by the Parkinson Building on the left as above. FROM THE EAST - M62 WESTBOUND Exit M62 at junction 29 onto the M1 northbound. Continue as from M1 north bound directions FROM A1 NORTHBOUND Leave A1 at Ferrybridge services to join M62 westbound. Exit M62 at junction 29 to M1 north and follow M1 northbound directions FROM A1 SOUTHBOUND AND FROM YORK Leave A1 taking A64 to Leeds. Join Inner ring road at leeds and take the exit signposted A660 Skipton.This brings you out on Woodhouse lane with the entrance to the Uni a few hundred yards on your left. **** The construction on the A1 may have cocked up my directions so just follow the signs for leeds until you hit the inner ring road. I hope that makes thing a bit clearer for you all. If you need anything else give me a call Have a good couple of weeks and I'll see you all on the 13/14 Love Rachxxxxxxxxx Rachel Jacobs 3 Elizabeth Street Hyde Park Leeds LS6 1JF 0113 224 2891 Lec6rej@leeds.ac.uk
