Everyone is welcome to enter the English Champs in Jan, we say English Champs
but there are categories right from novice up to handy where the A Class is
still by no means anywhere near a professional level, Im merely a ping pong
player with limited skills in other sports and I seem to do ok! Not to mention
the Assistant General Manager wiping the floor with me at Romford last Saturday!
With my vastly inflated ranking of 7 in the UK, if someone can walk in off the
street as it were not having played the sport previously and give me a good
pasting that just shows you what the sport is all about. It's great the interest
we continue to get and we are gunning for a new web solution in early 2008. See
below for web links! And a Press Release from the International Racketlon
Federation. Best of luck to the England team in Rotterdam at the World
Championships, a weakened outfit with mssrs Struthers & Lawrence not able to
make the trip, nevertheless Lorna should do very well and well the men will do
well not to finish last, but hey who organises a World Champs between Xmas & New
Year. At least the International Federation came back to me this week saying
that I was in fact (for once!) talking sense and that it was a silly time to
hold a competition with regards to gaining top British participation. However,
interestingly other countries don't seem too fussed and no less than 32 of the
top 40 on the Mens World Rankings are in attendance, including 12 Swedish
Players of this 32 Mens Class A draw. No doubt Ray, Stuart & Co will sort
everyone out, if not on court then at the bar afterwards.

Right also Im sorry about this being in a newsletter but Ive decided to go to
the Hungarian Open in Feb in Budapest (yes it is causing friction with the Mrs!)
however if anyone wishes to join me we can co-ordinate flights, etc. It is the
first FULL world ranking event of 2008 and is set to be a blockbuster not to
mention my first event abroad for over a year! Also, have a look at
www.resultreporter.com the new, innovative racketlon tournament & ranking
solution for the World Tour where players will also be able to register for the
2008 ENGLISH OPEN & DOUBLES WORLD CHAMPS taking place at Redbridge next August.
A bit of an Internet explosion for the sport which continues to grow online.

I wont bother with happy new year n all that, go on then, happy Chrismikkah,
that's a bit different, more of a combination type event!

Cheers
