I have chosen the 12th to announce the team as it gives the team members plenty time to book rooms and ensures we have a good selection of hotels to choose from, at the moment Holiday Inn looks a good choice to be the team hotel. It will mean people have enough time to see the thread and put a good case forward to me, which I have to say a lot of people have done.
So the team will be selected on 12th and if members of BCPC or any other club wish to apply then they are as welcome as everybody, but I will be fair on those people who want to play and don"t have (or in some cases want) the option of another team and would like to know if they are going to Bolton or not, some people will also have to sort out time off work and giving them as much notice as possible allows them to do this. Also by selecting this team as early as possible whilst still being fair to everybody allows those people not selected to have the chance to try for other teams. As Leigh says I could pick a number of excellent teams from the applications I have already recieved so some people have to be dissappointed. I want them to have the chance to get into other teams if possible and still attend the event.
Keep the applications coming, although this really does get harder everytime I look at my PM"s, this is going to be a great team we are in with a great chance of winning for a second year.
