On top of that - JK, do you expect anyone at all to compete at -57KG? Cos I'm 57KG at the moment. Dunno whether to try and bulk up a lil, or just make 57KG and compete at 64KG if theres nobody at 57KG. Meh, don't think I could bulk if I wanted to.

SBG Ireland

hard to say john, as you can see on the form we ask

"If no other competitor registers for your weight division, are you willing to fight up one weight category in order to get a match? "

so far teams coming from scotland, england, cork, limerick, kerry, dublin, up north etc so should be good day

MaeveD

Is there a charge in to watch?

SBG Ireland

€5

MaeveD

Okkie dokkie.... stick out a few extra chairs so, a few of our lads are coming out for a goo

What time do you expect it to go on until John, myself and Ray are teaching in the am so won't make it out til 2ish

SBG Ireland

as for estimating finish time.....lol

MaeveD

Unfortunately no, not this time cause we're heading to the US to train soon... lots interested though, so should have a few entering next year
