No more than a few feet away from Buckingham Palace itself is St. James’s Park, which will be a new location for the UK branch of the WBO, as all of our non-expo tournaments so far have taken place in Regents Park.

Although Regents Park has been a great venue before, we feel that St. James’s Park is a better location for this time of year.

Not only does the point we’ve chosen have good food and toilet facilities, but it is also very close to a gazebo in the event of rain.

The meeting point will be just up and to the left of point 5 on the St. James’s park map:
http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/st_james_park/

You’ll also be able to see on the map by clicking on “Transport & info”, the nearest tube stations.

We'll me meeting at point 5 (The blue bridge) at 12:00pm, and will move to an area of nearby grass at 1:00 to start the tournament. The tournament will most probably go on until around 3:30, yet it could go on for less, or possibly longer.

We'd recommend travelling to the event from Green Park station (one stop on from Oxford Circus), as it's closest to the event.
• The tournament style will be block round robin, since this worked well at the last event.
• The main tournament will be MFB only, but free battles will allow plastic and HMS as usual.

Items we'd recommend for you to bring would include a hooded coat or jacket in case of rain, possibly an umbrella, and layers such as jumpers and scarves as the weather will still be cold at the time of the tournament.

We'd also recommend that if you do intend to take part in the tournament, then bring your own beys.

This may sound like an obvious suggestion, but in the past people have come without, expecting to borrow other peoples.

This would not be a problem, but more than half the blades that have been lent out to people have either come back damaged from improper use, or not come back at all (as those who visited expo will know).

Obviously this has made people a lot more reluctant to lend out their own beys.

The entry fee will be the same as usual, free with a blader passport (£6 to buy), or £3 otherwise, and as usual there is no age restriction.

We hope you'll be interested in this tournament, and enjoy it as you have done with previous tournaments.

Thanks,
theflightyellz

For this tournament (which will probably be one of the first of many), Libra will be banned as was decided by popular vote.
We feel that this will make the tournament a lot more interesting, and encourage people to use both new defense, and attack combinations.

no but i have to take train from where i live and it has snowed like hell here i took 2 hours to travel 6 miles :\
Time: 9:18. Just woke up. Weather is looking decent.. a bit wet outside but not rainy. I'd advise everyone to bring a coat with a hood or an umbrella. Weather forcast says that its only going to spit during the mornings then there should be sunny intervals from 12:00 PM.
Hope the best of luck to everyone, and Sam, I will hope to beat you againTongue_out_wink.
Man i'm so sad i'm not goingUnhappy Hope everyone going has a good time.
Hope everyone has a blast. May the best blader win.
I forgot they were doing this, best of luck to all of you and as Khel said, may the best blade win. My beat is on Flight though. Smile

burn phoenix 100 rf

To be honest it was a terrible combo, the track was waaaayyyy to high (It wasn't 100 for sure) for RF and Burn, so every body uppercut it. You should change it to 105 or something.

Had a great time overall, got home safely Pinching_eyes_2. can't wait for the next tourney now Tongue_out

(BTW LeeDraciel do you still have the video of Ellz and Rocky arguing in the finals lol)
Good to hear things went well. Smile
i lost 3 matches and won 3 but if i didn't use dark wolf at the the beginning i would of won more
it was 105
BTW LeeDraciel do you still have the video of Ellz and Rocky arguing in the finals lol)
