Hello all,
I have added four upcoming competitions to the competition interest spreadsheet. One of them is quite soon, so sorry about the short notice (I’m not great at my job), and they’re all relatively nearby so transport isn’t too difficult.
We don’t currently subsidise non-BUCS competitions so you’ll have to enter and pay for yourself, but if you are entering please do put your names in the sheet for our own record keeping and so we can contact you if needed for whatever reason.

Yorkshire and Humberside Seniors and Masters Open
