ok the organisation of the site + facilities, camping, bar, marshalling was all spot on, along with the prizes and the trophies were awsome (damn you redz
i'll be coming by to rob one of you of a trophy).
All the marshalling was also perfect and i don't think we had a bad call at all - and especially well played to marshalling sunday you did brilliantly
.
Bornmouthe sports centre - pure class, excellent facilities, oladies and mens changing rooms with showers toilets etc, good camping grounds, good cheap bar (because its a sport centre), near perfect (and obviously fairly new) astroturf, no cut up knees or nothing I just feel for the poor *******s cleaning it.
However, the organisation of the setup was completely sh1t, we got told the fields would be ready to walk friday lunchtime but they weren't and not only that the netting was being set up instead!!! Think about it we don't have to walk the netting wouldn't it have made more sense to do the fields, not to mension the fact you only need to do half the field in reality as it's symetrical. Also what about those sh1tty sand bags, why not just fill the bunkers with water like first year, I said to which i got "It takes to long to get the water out" - how many days are you cleaning up after the tourny that they could be drying out in, sorry thats just lazy.
Sorry this is in no way a pop at anyone or any of the setup crew you did great and im glad i didnt have to do it (been there with M25, setup is a nightmare) but a bit of common sense with setting up fields first and using the tried and tested method of filling bunkers with water to stop them going everywhere. I know this is a bit of a rant but i paid top dollar and got the time off work on friday to walk the fields on friday - they had been setting up since wednesday and only half the netting and one field is set up and not even measured out yet!
Other than that tho I did have a cracking time and WILL be back next year without a doubt.
