come on guys - I know we do a good job, but this is your chance to have your
input and shape 2008 and beyond..........!
My twopence for what its worth:
1. I prefer 11 up and shorter events (more attractive as only take a day rather
than a whole weekend)
2. Training Camp I'm up for whenever
3. I'd like to introduce a season license for British Events so that once you
have played 4 events you get the value of that license back. So the season
license would cost £10 and a per event license would be £2.50. Something along
those lines.........
Cheers
Keith

> I've got a few questions for discussions/feedback amongst players:
>
> 1. Proposed Training Camp for 2008 - Centre Parcs and Norwich Sports Village
are being tabled as potential venues. Any thoughts on dates? Would a summer camp
suit, or a spring or winter camp? When would be best? Loads of players, loads of
practice, winning formula?
>
> 2. Pricing - Were the 2007 Tournament charges for players good value for money
/ should we charge more/less in 2008 / how does this compare to other sports,
people participate in? Do you think a racketlon membership fee is a good idea
and how much should be charged for this, what could/should it include? Would a
per tournament license fee work v a season license fee?
>
> 3. 11 or 21, structure/categories of events? Hard to have age and band as
players tend to enter both creating a difficult schedule and sometimes too tough
on stamina? Whats the optimum - one day 11 tournaments? Say 8 a year? Two day 21
tournaments, 4 a year? Stick to one scoring system? Is 15 ok? Whats best?
>
> 4. Anything else……..?
>
> In the interim period between now and January we are identifying which of
these ideas are best. 2 Main Priorities continue to be the set-up of the English
Racketlon association (imminent) - a letter of approval is with Sports England,
Companies House have the documentation. And up to date content on
racketlon.co.uk - which is still being worked on.
