Players of all standards are welcome. The format will be the same as in all our recent tournaments. Play will start at 11:30, there will be four sessions with a break for lunch after the first, and the event should finish by 20:00. Further details may be available on the BSkA web site at http://www.weddslist.com/skat/ or feel free to ask any questions by replying to this message. Entry costs ?5 and there will be prizes depending on the number of entrants. So that we have some idea of how many players to expect, I would be very grateful if you could let me know a few days in advance whether you are intending to play. You can contact me by e-mail at john at pagat.com or by phone at 020 7636 9653 or by post at 31 Ridgmount Gardens, London WC1E 7AS. People who have not registered in advance are still welcome to enter by coming to the Rising Sun on the day and we will do our best to include you. On the day, the pub will be open from 11:00. Please arrive by 11:15 if you intend to play in the first session, so that we can start on time. If you will be arriving later than 11:15 please call my mobile or send me a text - my number is 07736 518738 to let me know at what time you expect to arrive (this applies whether or not have registered in advance). Players who do not appear or send a message by 11:15 are not guaranteed a place in the first session. We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on 25th November.
