There are changes to Canadian Nationals in Edmonton. Please visit the flier at www.foosball.com/schedule or on the TSAC site.

The events are now Round Robin group stage followed by double elimination. I spoke with a lot of foosers from around the country and this seemed to be the consensus best avaliable method. I'm not going to get away from the group stage which I feel is important - but I do think double elimination is best for everyone in the end.

Gateway(the location hosting the event) and Sleeman had a falling out and Gateway no longer sells sleeman products. Gateway is paying the sleeman portion of the sponsorship now and encourages you to drink big rock at the event! Not much changes other than that sleeman isn't on the flier now.

Simon Edwards also will be running a special event at the tournament(time permitting) - Retro Doubles, on his Brown Top TS table. Foosers with previous TS table experience will be given preferance for entry. $5 or $10, to be determined later.

I hope everyone is happy with the changes that have been made - I'm excited!
