2012 Medal Tournament Entry Now Open

The introduction of Medal tournaments in early 2011 was a great success! It seems there are many players who would prefer to play for a permanent memento of their triumph, rather than play for cash, which disappears all too quickly. Also, the timing of the tournament proved popular, giving members something new to start halfway through the traditional season.

Entry for the 2012 competitions is now available via the Medal Tournament Page
