Coventry Open 2010
The 3rd Coventry Open Tournament will be held on Sunday 17th October 2010 (10.30 am) at the Coventry & North Warwickshire Cricket Club (link to google maps below). We will be using the newly built Coventry Bridge Club facilities housed at the Cricket Club.
Unlike previous years we do not need to put a limit on the number of entrants. This tournament is open to all. It is part of the BIBA British Backgammon Tour 2010 and also carries Grand Prix Points for BIBA members (although the event is independent of Biba and open to non-BIBA members).
The main event will be a nine point knock-out. There will be a seven point progressive consolation event and a five point knock-out last chance. Trophies will be awarded for winners and runners up of each event. There will be optional prize pools available for each event.
Coventry & North Warwickshire Cricket & Squash Club 148-150 Binley Road, Coventry CV3 1HB ( it’s on the A428 road)
