APAT Season 8 - [Pre-release Discussion]

[Waz1892]

I"ve seen, regretable i"ll add, drift away from APAT, which kind of started in S6 i guess.

Now i was never a profilic attendee to all events, but it has to be said, S1-5/6 seemed to concentrate on UK venues, no team events, and a simple 1 per month, great value tournament.

Since S5 that seems to have drifted towards teams events, european trips. I understand the need to grow the brand/membership and the like, but imo, this has been at the cost of the core amateur player.

As they became less UK events, i had even less options to attend. I think in S6 it was like Aug then nothing until Feb that was within my reach.

Now the above is very mememe, but i think it has effected alot of others?

I think you"ll find a clear return to regular, UK based, events in S8 Warren.  We want this schedule to exclude as few of our players as possible.  Simplicity has been the watchword in planning the season.

And what month would that season be starting in?

Again, and selfish point of view from my part, however sounds great and good to see.

My original point was an observation not a critic by the way. APAT has done more from my game than i have myself!!

It won"t be long now.

One might even say it will be.......SOOOON!
