Last summer's event was a great success and we were proud to hold an event using only 40mm-scale boards and throwing meters. We have had nothing but positive feedback on the boards and the only negative on the event was that we hadn't given enough notice. So this time we're planning the event WELL in advance and we look forward to the biggest BB tournament Canada has ever seen. We look forward to seeing see last year's participants return and hope to see a lot of new faces as well.
