Official News on UK City Challenges

Details for UK CC's

Okay here are the details...

UK City Championships

Around 20 will be held up and down the country, TOs should contact TPFG directly to offer to host one. The latest two Cities to register are Slough and Hillingdon/Uxbridge. already registered are Norwich (16th May), amongst others.

The CCs will take place between now and June, depending on who's organised the venue (TO). Nintendo/TPFG have offered full prize support so the entry fees need only cover the cost of hiring the place out.

There are 3 age groups -
10-
11-14
15+
Each winner of a CC bracket will receive an invitation to the UK National Championships, now confirmed to be taking place in birmingham, July 3rd 2004.


1st Place
CC Promo (Charmander), invite to Nationals, 'Basic' prize package, and a display of TM/TA boosters.

2nd Place
18 TM/TA boosters.


3rd/4th Place
9 boosters.


That's all for now.

No, there'll be places up for grabs at the Regional (State) championships, four of them are to be held; Northern Ireland, N, NE and SE championships are being planned. TPFG are further ahead on the development of the CCs and really just need TOs to get in touch with them so that they can get the medals engraved etc.

Just wish I could be assured of covering the venue costs .. there really ought to be some payment to help with that especially when we are trying to help out at the last minute.

I would be happier if there had been time to plan and advertise the UK CCs and I am also concerned about the prompt arrival of prize support. So far every pre-release has been a scramble I would hate to find out that each CC is just as much of a rushed job :(

Maybe if there was a decent 10 week or so lead time that would help but with them happening now and through may we just don't have the time ...
 
CROYDON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wait... so there's a regional in Northern Ireland planned, but no CC, and there are no leagues here (that I'm aware of)....
That makes sense... how?
:\

Is the Falkirk CC confirmed yet, or any idea of what day it'll be?

This is great news, nice swoop NoPoke.

It's quite a nice spread around the country, I think.

I will confirm Slough and Hillingdon dates as soon as possible, need to get advertisement sorted out.

Cool, i've stuck this on Team UK too.

Beware, UK players - the Tings are coming. you have been warned :D

It's a shame that all those that have not been seen for some time, have not added or invested in the game are now rushing back to play just for the prizes? :( I predict lots of sharking and smart talking .. judge team will have to be on their toes!

Maybe there should be a way to limit the rewards to the players who have stuck by the game and invested time and effort?

Still it will be nice to see if "Tings ain't what they used to be?"
 
Yes it will be a shame if players come along that have not supported all our efforts and have by and large not helped keep the game going just for the goodies!! Hopefully that will not happen and the people that come will support,maintain and indeed help our game to grow!
