Welcome to the first Salford Circuit Opener (previously Store Championship)! Our venue will be Eccles RFC, M30 7LZ (see travel instructions later). Registration will start at 10:30 for an 11:00 Round 1. Lunch at 13:20ish. Swiss and prize-giving should finish before 17:00. Cut should be done before 19:00. Entrance fee TBC, payable on the day.
Format will be 4 rounds of Swiss, followed by a Top 3/4 Cut (dependant on numbers). Prize support will be the Nisei SC kit plus whatever else I can rustle up. This will be a standard card pool event, as described on the Nisei website, and following the current Standard Ban List.
What if I don't have all the cards?
Proxies are legal and acceptable. Nisei cards can be downloaded direct from their website. FFG-era cards are available from ProxyNexus.net. If you don't have access to a printer, hand-written proxies are acceptable as long as they contain all relevant information and are legible (to be reviewed by TO in advance).
How do I get to Salford?
By car - We're two minutes from J11 of the M60 with lots of free onsite parking.
By rail - Patricroft station (Liverpool - Manchester line) is a 10 minutes walk away. Salford Crescent station (Preston - Manchester line) is a 15 minutes cab ride, or you can pick up the 67 or 100 bus.
By bus - The 10 and 67 go from Manchester Shudehill to the end of the street. The 100 drops you slightly further away but still within walking distance.
By tram? - Eccles tram stop is about a 30 minutes walk away, so not ideal. But you can pick up the buses mentioned above for about five minutes.
What do I eat and drink?
Asda, Subway and more are about a 10 minutes walk (or two minutes drive) away. Or you're very welcome to bring food with you. We have a bar on site which will be open for hard and soft drinks, plus crisps and chocolate.
Any other questions? Ping me @mcg on StimSlack or GLC Discord.
