BRITISH CHAMPIONSHIPS: Weekend Information announced

North & Scotland regional Chair Mike Hack has sent in the following information regarding the British Individual Finals Weekend:

The North & Scotland Region is pleased to announce information regarding the 2023 British Individual Finals Weekend, to be held over the Bank Holiday Weekend, 26-28 August.

Three clubs will be hosting the Championships – Hull and Sheffield will both stage events on both the Saturday and Sunday, whilst Astley & Tyldesley will promote the Monday Finals. The Sheffield club will utilise both the Cookson Park and Graves Centre tracks – actual days to be confirmed in June, once the football fixtures have been released, in view of Cookson Park’s close proximity to Sheffield Wednesday’s ground.
