Dear Subbuteo friends,

We are very happy to publish the latest WASPA records after the amazing month we have had. We had indeed 38 regional tournaments, 1 promotional event, 9 tournaments with the old rules, 1 test-match and 1 leg of the NETFA circuit added in the records.

Central Coast condors tournament in California

It's great to see tournaments taking place in many different countries (France, England, Ireland, Australia, South Africa, the USA, the Netherlands, Belgium, Northern Ireland, Spain) and to see some more clubs involved. The "Woburn Casual" club held a first WASPA event while 2 clubs are added in the rankings of clubs (Alba Roma in the Development League and SC Valponte in the Junior ranking). Good also to see some clubs holding their first WASPA event this season like the Central Coast Condors TSC in California and Saint-Symphorien in France.

A very nice tournament in Saint-Synphorien, France

Some events had a really amazing turnout like the Stockton-on-Tees tournaments counting for the English championship with 30 players or the Consolation tournament of the Golden Grand Prix in Mechelen (Belgium) where 27 players were involved. Special mention to the Chasers Open in England with 32 players in the results, which is awesome!

Anniversary tournament in Melbourne

We also appreciate the growing success of tournaments played with the old rules. Italy and England are the two leading nations but there was also a tournament played with old rules in Ireland.

Finally our Italian friends of SC Valponte had a tournament for juniors only and it's fantatsic the winner travelled from France to play with the representatives of Valponte and Rebels Genova.

Don't hesitate to run tournaments under the WASPA banner. It's a great way to promote your club, to attract new players and to create local or regional development and we all agree this is what the game needs nowadays.
