Regent's Park - London, UK


It has been over a year since London last heard the sound of metal clashing against metal in exhilarating battles. London used to be at the forefront of beyblading, one of the hotspots alongside New York, Montreal and many others. However, it is now a barren wasteland, with no colour and with no cries of anguish nor cries of triumph.
The Beyspirit of talented bladers now lay in the ashes of a once proud and glorious city.

Beyblading was officially dead...

Earlier this summer a band of veterans, bladers like you and I, decided it was time to bring London back to its former glory. With the blessing of a Greek God, this group set off to accomplish what others dared not to do.
With their Beyspirit surging high beyond our galaxy and with the hope of others following their footsteps, we are certain London shall begin Rising from the Ashes and start a new age.


Welcome to the first of many events to come.
Welcome to a new era of London Beyblading.




Time:
The tournament itself will start at 12:00pm, so as a guide, aim to arrive for 11:30am. The Tube and public transport services are not very reliable, so plan your journey well in advance.

Location:
Regent's Park. We shall be at the Bandstand like ye olden days.

Directions:
Here is a map of Regent's Park. Head to the area marked Bandstand. We suggest taking the London Underground or Bus to Baker Street.


Tournament Format:
Standard MFB Format. We will be doing Block Round Robin, seeing as we have a small participant pool. But hey, more battles, more fun!

Price:
As usual, all participants must pay a £3 fee. We accept cash only!
If you have a valid Blader Passport, entry is free. Blader Passports can be purchased on the day for £6 and last a whole year! Absolute bargain!

Prizes:
Sorry, no physical prizes this time, but credits and Face Boosters will be awarded!

Hosts and Judges:
This tournament is being hosted by Manicben, somewhat of a veteran and tournament host. I have chosen Ultra and Saisei (depending on numbers) to be judges this time round, due to their support and experience. If you have any queries, either here or on the day, feel free to PM Manicben or talk to one of us on the day, we would be happy to help!

Important Advice:
Despite being around friends and rivals, please remember we are in a public park. Bad behaviour and swearing will not be tolerated and will result in a ban from future events. Please keep your personal belongings with you or in a safe place while at the bandstand. If you see any personal items left around with no apparent owner, please hand it in to a judge, so we can return it to its rightful owner. Your cooperation is much appreciated.

Remember to turn up on time. If you arrive later than 12:10pm, your place will be forfeit and you will not be able to participate.


Message from the Hosts:
Thank you everyone, especially Poseidon, for helping out with the Revival of the London Beyblading scene and I hope we make a huge comeback as one of the WBO's largest blading hotspots. As I'm moving to London, tournaments will be hosted by myself (and others most likely) a lot more often, meaning Beydays and other events are guaranteed to take place. Expect another tournament coming soon, especially if you cannot make it to this one!

Can't wait for the next tournament!!!!!! Grin
12 people took part. That with certain people not being able to make it, plus a few on holidays ect. We should always be able to get a decent amount for future tournaments.
Awesome, sounds like you guys had a blast! Kudos to Manicben for pulling this off, as well.

Hoping to see more events up and on that list from you guys!

EDIT: Now as we patiently wait for the results..
I'm so happy this went to plan haha. Having Britain back on the beyblading map is seriously awesome.
Wow, so psyched to hear that the tournament ran successfully and you guys are planning to do more in the future! Can't wait to see the results.
Thanks for an awsome day guys. It was nice to catch up with everyone.
Who placed?
After a great and surprisingly sunny day in London, 12 people turned up (shame on those who didn't), and some good battles took place. The park was filled with the sounds of metal clashing metal again.

The top 3 were:

3rd Place - Enzoxs

2nd Place - LeeDraciel

aaaaaaaaaaaaand

1st Place - Blitz

Literally people could have placed bets on who would make it to the finals.
Thanks to everyone who attended! It's people like you who make events like this happen!

Ultra should be hosting in September and I will return with a motherload of beyblade goodness in October.
CongratZ to All the winners! Smile
Congratulations to the winners! I hope I can maybe make the next one. It seemed fun.
Had a great time today was awesome to catch up with everyone that made it! Today has very much rekindled my interest in Beyblade again and as much as I loved hosting it was nice not to have to worry about organising everything and just concentrate on playing for once. So well done to everyone that made this happen and thanks to ManicBen for hosting, everything went really well and look forward to hopefully being able to make the next one.
I so called it. Joyful_3

Awesome job everybody! Can't wait for the next event!
Wonder how this will affect the rankings; I think we may have a new World Champ haha!
I can't wait to go to London now guys haha. Nor can I wait to see the winning Combinations!
