Lastest old rules event in Brescia, Italy

July was an amazing month for several reasons. We had the first Subbuteo tournament ever in Mongolia and this was played under the WASPA banner. We were also glad to see Cyprus back in the circuit.

England is the leader of the circuit in all categories but they deserve a lot of respect for organising so many local and regional tournaments. Some of their "big events" are also played under the WASPA banner, which is simply amazing!

We continue to receive tournaments from many countries. Greece, Belgium, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Australia, the Netherlands, South Africa and Austria have also held WASPA tournaments and we are also excited to see the development of events played with the old rules.

There is no need to speak more about the events. It's better if you look at rankings and check that everything is correct. We had minor errors in the rankings last month but everything is corrected now.

Thanks to all national associations, clubs, organizers and players who support the circuit!

How to send results?

This is a question I often receive and the easiest way to send results is to keep individual scores of all games (group stages, knock-out games) + a list of players taking part (first name, name, club, country, birthdate also if there are new juniors). Once we have that, it's usually easier to keep records.

Once again, I insist on the fact clubs should not 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.

All your ideas to make the WASPA circuit more attractive are more than welcome. Don't hesitate to send your feedback. We also hope to see more and more clubs running events under the WASPA banner in the future.
