At Daves request I have taken over this thread, am now looking for confirmation of actual entries, so please either post on here or contact me by PM or phone 07952 800 731.
am pleased to advise that SCBBA are looking at the option of playing a Sussex Under 30's Competition on Saturday 9th June 2012 at the Roffey Club in Horsham.
This competition would be played alongside the Sussex Masters Competition and players would probably only be able to play in EITHER the Masters OR the Under 30's Competition due to the schedule of the Masters, however we would look into all of the options for that nearer to the time.
There would be an Entry Fee of £3 per player and the Competition would only be run of there were a MINIMUM of 8 players taking part.
To enable us to make a decision on whether to go ahead, please would any interested players respond to this thread with names of Entries and, if it looks viable, we will then confirm that the competition will go ahead and send Entry Forms out.
Please would Forum members advise any young Sussex players about this competition, SCBBA are keen for this to go ahead and hope that it will become a regular feature in future years.
Thank you.
Potential Entries List
1) Mike Daw (definite + paid) 2) Henry Brooks (definite + paid) 3) Jamie Hall (definite + paid) 4) Martin Cole (definite + paid) 5) Daniel Wheal (definite and paid) 6) Rob Hall (definite + paid) 7) Lorenzo Hickman (definite + paid) 8) Kevin Hall (definite + paid) 9) Kristian Knudson ( definite + paid) 10) James Whittle (definite and paid) 11) Chris Turner (definite and paid) 12) Jason Akehurst (Definite and paid) 13) Chris Hagger (Definite and paid) 14) Andy Craddock ( definite and paid) 15) Joe Oakley ( definite + paid )

I'm pleased to advise that we have now think that we can have a format that would allow eligible players to take part in both the Sussex Masters and the Under 30's Competition, although it would depend on how many entries we get for the Under 30's Competition.
Please would players that would like to take part register their interest here and return their entry forms to me as soon as possible.
Many thanks.

We are hoping (subject to the numbers entering) to run the competition on a round robin basis so players would all get more than one match and Jean has worked out a format that would enable this to be played on the same day as the Masters without preventing players from entering both competitions.
This system would work with less than 16 entries, if we get more than that we may have to look at a knock-out competition for the Under 30's instead. Obviously, the sooner we know how many entries we are likely to receive we can look at the options in more detail.

We have 8 definites, looks as though will go ahead, plenty more under 30`s around lets get those entries in.
We have a sponsor for the perpetual trophy, so that is all arranged. Just need the interest.

I would imagine that as a Surrey player you may need to also be registered for a Sussex team, Debz.
But shouldn't be a problem for next year if you have a word with Richard Plaw and get him to add you to his Stout House squad. :-/

Anyone got any thoughts before I make it up as I go Jean at the moment we have 17 entries, 12 defite of which 9 have paid, awaiting confirmation of the other 5, suggest we go for round robin format (giving all more games), and put the limit on 16 with first come first in from those who have shown an interest already. This would mean in a worse case senario we will have to deny entry to the last one who confirmed or take up Chunkey Monkeys offer. Sure with chasing I can get confirmation soonest, and at latest before Guernsey.

The Under 30's will start at 10am. Please could all players be there 9.30 latest so we can do the draw for the groups.
It would also be nice if a few people could turn up to help with the scoring as playing this in groups, to give everyone as many games as possible means we could be a bit short on scorers
There will be food available on this day
