The Albion Coast Cup is back and its the ELEVENTH installment of mayhem in Southampton!
The Albion Coast Cup is a tournament like no other. Rich in history the ACC has run for over a decade now and for the fifth year we are proud to present the UK's only progression tournament. As a progression tournament the ACC is still NAF-ranked but each coach has a team to develop and build rather than a fixed roster of everliving players. As has been the case for a very long time now the Albion Coast Cup will be held on the August Bank Holiday weekend, so 29th and 30th August.
This also constitutes the penultimate round of the South West Tournament Championship.
Remember that this is a little different to other tournaments so here's the detail:
The tournament will be run according to the CRP with the following exceptions, amendments and clarifications:
Starting Treasury: 1,050,000
Slann, Underworld, Chaos Pact rosters included.
No Inducements may be purchased as part of your starting roster.
All Inducements allowed (including Special Play Cards) and to be chosen at the start of each game. Petty Cash may be used for Inducements.
SPPs are earned according to the rulebook with the exception of the MVP which is chosen rather than awarded to a random player.
All skill rolls must be made immediately after the game in the presence of your opponent (+stats and doubles are allowed).
All purchases, journeymen, and skills must be selected after each game and before the start of the next round.
Any Ogre teams will be allowed to allocate ONE extra MVP to a player of their choice prior to the first game.
Remember especially the Petty Cash rules, which could be relevant at any point.
Points will be awarded as follows:
Win: 3 Points
Draw: 1 Point
Loss: 0 Points
Each round will be drawn according to the Swiss format with no reference to TDs, CAS or TV
If two or more coaches are tied for first place at the end of the final game (or indeed any places) then opponent score will be used to find final placings.
It is expected that you will be able to provide appropriate miniatures for any stars that you may induce (or at least proxies that distinguish them from regular team members)
It would be sensible to ensure you bring a good number of skill rings.
Starting Rosters will be required in advance of The ACC so that provision can be made for efficient printing of updated rosters in between rounds.
These should be emailed to robin as either excel files or just typed out clearly.
Venue, costs, and stuff...
The venue this year will be The Atherley Bowling Club!
There is a bar, a very large free private car park (dont park in the committee spaces!!), a restaurant where they will feed us and a function room where will be play unmolested by non-Blood Bowlers.
There will be a fabulous buffet lunch on the saturday and sunday, and hopefully we can go for a beer and a bite to eat saturday night (not included in ticket price)
The venue is very easy to get to from the M3 and M27, and is a mile from Southampton Central Railway station and the city center.
You can find the venue here: https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Atherl ... 0&t=m&z=14

All this for just £22, if you are new to the NAF we will cover your first year membership
