The Weekend of 3/4/5 July 2020 will see the return to the Lyon region of the P500, with that of the TCM5 directed by "the pipe" Pierre Gadras accompanied by Robin Faure in the organization of the tournament.
After the first successful collaborations, the tournament will be the real first test for the post-covid period with the expected participation of excellent players: François AUTHIER, Benjamin JOULOT, Norman SANCHEZ, Justin MARLOT, Benoît CHAUVET, Jean-Yves LEVRAT, David MIOTTO etc.
The winners of the previous edition, Benjamin JOULOT and Norman SANCHEZ, will put their title at stake, facing ever more intense competition.
Upstream and downstream communication, the welcome pack, the music, the shield as a trophy or even fast food will always be present during the competition.
If the tournament wants to be very competitive, it does not forget the very values of this sport which are conviviality, solidarity or even respect. This is why players participating in pools will see the price of their registration drop (€ 15 instead of € 20 per head), and will have at most a level of play as homogeneous as possible to have maximum fun on the tournament.
Small precision, "the beer is 2 euros and it is very appreciated by the players and spectators at each tournament" dixit the director of the tournament.
The 4 pools of 4 teams will be played on Thursday and Friday evening between 19 p.m. and 22 p.m. The best of each hen will come out in the final table.
The first 12 seeds will be in the final table from Saturday to Sunday.
The tournament is limited to only 28 teams, the 28 teams with the highest ranking will be selected and the other teams will be on the waiting list. For the moment, there are already 10 registrations while the opening only started yesterday!
