The Winter Competition has been pushed back a week against its original start date. Initially there was a two week break for the Nationals after Round One of the Finals. The decision to place the break there was based on the timing of the Champion of Champions tournament.
At last night’s State Executive Meeting, the captains agreed that it was preferable to have the break in between the final round of the regular season and the commencement of the finals series. This means that the dates for the Winter Comp and the Champion of Champions have both been changed by one week.
The Winter Competition will now start on July 14. The calendar on the website has been updated.
Nominations for the Winter Comp are still due at next month’s meeting (June 7) and the captains packs will be available at the July meeting.
Due to a couple of teams withdrawing this season, the number of teams currently registered is 41. This means there will more than likely be only 5 divisions again next season and there is a chance a team may miss out. While I will try to avoid this, I am also wary of avoiding the amount of byes we have this season. In lieu of this, no late nominations will be accepted. Please organise a practice session / bbq / tupperware party with your team in the next few weeks to get the sheet signed so you don’t miss out.
(I will send out the nomination form tonight. Matt K – can you please add to the web once received?)

Chris Jones
ACTEBA Tournament Director
