    If you would like to join on the day of this Tournament, only a valid passport or driving licence will be accepted. The Club is strictly over 21's.


    All Tournament entries (€20) and Rebuys/Top-ups (€10) will go into the Prize pool.



    Vera's Birthday is actually on Thursday 20th August so we'll have to have a BIG celebration come Midnight. There will be wine served with the food at the dinner break, spot prizes (to be decided), a big cake and maybe a few songs from Tom Kitt.

    After speaking to Vera, we have decided that it will not be possible to reserve seats, which means the Club will only be able to run the Tournament on a first come first serve basis !


    Thanks


    Alex
