What Are District Cha mpionships?

\n

District Championships replace the UKs old Re gional Circuit and form the introductory level of competitive play! They a re run throughout the UK by local TOs and Judges\, and are a fantastic opp ortunity for any Netrunner player to get involved in organised play!

\n

This year\, there will be 8 total districts across the UK:

\n\n

Prizing

\n

This year\, each District is organising it's own prizing . All will include 2026 District Championship Prize Kit by NSG\, but addit ional prizes may vary by location.

\n

At Bathgate\, we are pleased to offer the following additional prizes: all participants will receive 3x D r. Nuka Vrolyck alt art created by Ezbior!

\n

This event will be run as single sided swiss\, with a cut. This i s expected to be 6 rounds of swiss\, with a top 4 cut\, but depends on num bers.

\n

Proxies and alt arts

\n

I hope you are all busy experimenting with new cards following the full release of Vantage Point\, looking forward to see ing some cool decks at the District!

\n

As it seems there is a good chance people will not be getting Vantage Point before the event I wanted to advise on the use of proxies and alt arts\, as this is a competitive ev ent.

\n

This covered in NSG Organised Play policy section 2.3\, but the key points for proxies are -

\n

Proxies must be printed

\n

T hey should contain all relevant card information

\n

Colour or black a nd white is fine - I'd prefer colour for easy recognition but appreciate e ase/cost is higher

\n

Printing will not be available at the event!

\n

If someone enterprising has already produced alt arts they should al so follow the guidance set out in organised play for alt arts.

\n

If on the day you are unsure about proxies please ask myself or another TO t o review\, but I beg you do not rely on hand drawn proxies.
