A great venue and well organised.</P> <P>However, it's a shame that it is not a co-ed tournie 2-5 split. As a female player, it is really hard to find teams that want to play with you. I've been told that Clapham are entering at least two teams to this tournament and therefore other guys are 'taking this tournament seriously' and therefore don't want women on the team.</P> <P>I could enter a women's team, but paying £20 for three games against such competition would not be that much fun. </P> <P>I've sent this to Britdisc to have a bit of a rant really - women play serious ultimate and it's rude to consider us only worthy of playing on a team when you're not bothered about winning the tournament. Please can tournament directors consider more co-ed regulations?</P> <P>Feel free to abuse me for being a whinging hag and to bugger off to organise a tournament myself.</P> <P>Becca<BR><BR></P><BR><BR><BR> <DIV> </DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href='http://go.msn.com/bql/hmtag_itl_EN.asp'>http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></html>
