Admin request

Post by SamD »

Guys, please post whether you wish to settle fee by cheque or bank transfer.
Do include surname too as this helps with payment reconciliation.

On a general note, with nine days to the admin deadline, about a third of the 2010 & 2012 summer prize league contestants have signed up.

Sorry for the non-two-footed (and rubbish) names :oops: - I'd registered the teams before deciding to enter this comp. I don't think you can change names after they are chosen?
Thanks for organising, Sam - looking forward to it.

@ Doogal: think team names are fine (and preferable, imo, to the foot-1 & foot-2 variety seen in previous leagues)...

Good luck to both sides.
