I think some of you have missed the point. This would be a TEAM tourney between different leagues and not an individual event. This is how I plan to make it work:-
Each league would have 8 players (more if there is enough interest)
Matches would be best of 3
1 frame of snooker
best of 3 in 8 ball
best of 5 in 9 ball
I would e-mail the two players concerned to notify them of their match. Both players would then e-mail me the score with optional report within an agreed timescale* which I would then post on the site (yet to be created)
I will set up various contact groups (1 for each league and 1 for all) and keep everyone bang up to date with going on)
Needless to say...a no-show equals loss
At this stage its too early to say what format this tourney will be in but hopefully you will contact me asap to firstly, declare an interest and also any suggestions to get this off the ground.
*Timescales*
I would suggest a 48 hr timescale for matches to be played after I notify both players. I understand that this is a global game however, and again I am open to suggestions.
By trying to do this, I am in no way trying to undermine the authority of TD's and admins from all leagues who are all doing a great job. This will be an unofficial tourney so there will be no need for officialdom (TDs, Admin, Moderator)
I understand that some of you will be sceptical about this but, as I said earlier, this will run on honesty and maturity so pranksters need not apply.
cheers
