SINGLE ENTRY

This competition will NOT operate a staged entry process. As such, please ensure all entries are submitted through BUCS Play prior to the closing date listed above.

Entry Allowance

Team entry numbers will be limited by venue capacity. Efforts will be made to accept as many teams as possible, but in the instance that the event is oversubscribed at the closing date, the following rules will apply, in order:

  • First teams will get priority over second teams, and second over third etc.
  • If there is insufficient room for all first teams, places will be awarded in the following order:
    • First teams finishing in the top half of the previous year’s tournament
    • First teams who didn’t enter the previous year’s tournament
    • Remaining first teams in order of their finishing position last year
  • If there are spaces remaining after all first teams have been awarded a space, second teams will be offered places in an order based on finishing position last year, then third teams and so on
    • Second teams with no finishing position from last year will have a lower priority than those who attended – but still above all third teams (and so on)
  • If the cut-off happens to fall between 2 or more teams with no finishing position from last year, a lottery will be run between those teams to determine entry.
