These are the Confirmed Table Hire Dates from my Calender
September 6 / BERKSHIRE (8 Tabs)

So we have a date for this year's Berks, but is the venue yet known ?

Sorry to nag, but last year it only went ahead after being rescued at the eleventh hour by Milhouse - and at a 3rd choice venue!

Bump !

[BB Warrior]

Well reminded Tommo.... hopefully this will take place this year?

Just five weeks to go to the date...........if there's not going to be one, it would be nice to know now !

Furthermore, the Redhill website quotes the venue for some (but not all) of the AEBBA events of 2015 as being "Arborfield, Berks" - is there something we should know ?

Think I would go by the AEBBA Tournaments and calendar listed on this forum  that has most at Didcot.

When Dave Alder dropped the tables down to Sussex last weekend for the BIOC Ladies he told me that the Berkshire Open would be held at Arborfield RBL on Sunday 6th September and that entry forms would be "available soon"....

Thanks for sharing that with us, Dave.
Certainly gives credence to what is listed on the Redhill website.

It seems that the AEBBA events are to be shared between the two venues, thus:

Arborfield Royal British Legion - 13 Sept; 27 Sept; 11 Oct; 22 Nov.
Didcot Conservative Club - 20 Sept; 18 Oct; 15 Nov.

Please do not confuse matters by posting what I believe is out of date information from another website.

The last I heard, whilst still an AEBBA committee member, is that NONE of the AEBBA comps will be held at Arborfield this year for financial reasons

Yet another instance where we could do with a degree of transparency from the AEBBA.

Hi all

I believe Sav is correct . From memory no AEBBA comps will be played at Arborfield this year and all will be played at Didcot except the ones given to Surrey (Gary Powell) and Sussex ( Dave Ingram/ already played ) to run.
All these dates and venues ( except Surrey/venue) have been on forum calendar all year .

Thanks

Curt

[David.G]

Hi All

The Berkshire Open WILL go ahead this year

Dave Alder
Phil Hawkins

Hi Dave

Would you like me to print some off and have them on the desk on Sunday. I could also collect entries and money/cheques if you would like and give them to you when you collect tables Sunday night?

Just a thought :)

Dawn

[David.G]

Hi dawn

That would be a great help to me.

Many thanks

Dave

[jordans]

I will have entry forms for the Berkshire Open on Sunday at the Bucks Open, so if you would like to enter I will happily take your forms and payment and give them to Dave when he collects the tables Sunday evening.

Thanks
Dawn

That is good news.... unless you are not at the Bucks Open of course.

Hopefully entry forms will be available somewhere else soon....???????????????

You'll find one on this thread:
barbilliards.proboards.com/thread/17851/berks-open-2015

.......Dave A having defied convention and posted on Berks board rather than on "AEBBA - County Opens".

EDIT: TO AVOID FURTHER CONFUSION HAVE MERGED THE TWO THREADS IN TO THIS THREAD


Link does not work - see post below for form

Attempt to "avoid further confusion" did not work either !!! LOL

[Chris]

I cannot find the thread re entries - ???? the link does not work for me ???

The edit (in capitals) by Sav on my last post lends a clue to why this is, Chrissie.
This is now the only thread, he having closed the one Dave A started on the Berks board.

You can now find an entry form on this one to download, but to my knowledge no-one has put up a list of entrants so far.
