Great to hear!
I'm thinking of moving the venue location for either this tournament or the next one in June/July.
I would like to check out Hyde Park, but I have discovered that the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park may be a great place to hold events. The reason for this is because Regent's Park, although a great place, has a few issues. Firstly, facilities, in terms of WC, food and etc. The bandstand being available is not reliable (we got kicked off...), as well as the concrete floor being a pain. I want to find a space that can accommodate all of us in a nice area with plenty of facilities.
Of course, I'd like to know what you all think. I'll be scouting out the Olympic Park sometime for a good area for us to use. They have toilets, plenty of food and Westfield is right next door. Did I mention the views? The nearest station is Stratford and a few others, which makes things easier for those travelling by train and Tube (e.g. Ultra and HB_SAUCE could get trains direct I think).
These are steps to make our tournaments more like those in North America. At the moment things are good, but I believe we can make tournaments much better, in terms of location, organisation and so on. Some of us have ideas to make tournaments less boring when waiting for matches, as well as making things comfortable and better timed.
That's all, just something I'd like everyone to consider. Just imagine it, we could hold events in the Olympic Park! Take that NA.
EDIT:
OK, we have Beydays coming up and that's the purpose of our next tournament. However I also need some confirmations for a tournament coming up this summer. For various reasons, we need to hold one in late July, and we require a tournament during that time. Don't ask why, all will be revealed later, just say that you are good to go in late July. Cheers
