Title: BTT Comp Now Live!
Description: Betfair Turbo Tennis Competition


trisco - September 6, 2007 02:46 PM (GMT)
Those kind folks over at Betfair Turbo Tennis have kindly offered 4 tickets to the upcoming tournament at the o2 Arena (formerly the Millenium Dome) in London on the 15th September. One lucky Centre Court forum user will win these tickets and be able to enjoy a fantastic evening and a tournament with a difference with 3 of their family or friends.

Betfair Turbo Tennis promises to be a fascinating test of who can adapt most quickly to this rapid-paced game with rules designed to provide maximum entertainment. Who will prevail? Will it be one of the young guns; James Blake, Andy and Jamie Murray, or will it be one of the more experienced Champions; Tim Henman, Goran Ivanisevic and Pat Cash. It’s a heavyweight showdown all done and dusted in one day, with the eventual winner taking home a $100,000 prize.

To book tickets call 0871 984 0002 or book online at www.theO2.co.uk.
For more information visit the dedicated website www.betfairturbotennis.com

If you don't want Hiro to have all the glory, then ENTER THE COMPETITION!!!!!

:yikes: Hiro having all the glory! - I'm entering at once :D

scolios - September 8, 2007 01:49 PM (GMT)
Hey Trisco - in the required details one is D o B. I assume it means date of birth (didn't think it could be "dead or buried"), but why do they want our date of birth??

scolios - September 8, 2007 01:53 PM (GMT)
Oh, I've just seen that only the named winner can collect the tickets and I've no intention of coming to the UK, so I shan't enter. If I'd won, I'd have given the tickets to one of you :D

Hiro,

Can you actually attend this tournament if you win?
If you SERIOUSLY can't let me know, if you are in a private school and it is term time... in Belgium, I'm sorta guessing you will not be able to attend and am thinking about asking them to remove you from the competition.

It isn't fair on others if you were to win but will not actually attend.

School is not the problem, Trisco - I don't have lessons on Saturdays. Reserving tickets to London is the problem. When I entered the competition, I thought that the winner would be announced on the 7th, and I could have easily reserved tickets on that day. However, I just realized that the winner will be announced on the 13th (two days before the event), which makes it unlikely for me to be able to reserve tickets to London were I to win.

Therefore, you'd best get me removed from the competition. Sorry for my misreading.

OK Hiro,

No worries, thanks for letting me know.

Cheers

Sounds great, but I don't think I'd be able to make it there if I won. :unsure:

Plus, people might call :bs: if the board founder won the competition.

But I hope you're getting plent of entries. I'd love to go, if I were in the UK> :ok:

You'd hope so, wouldn't you ... it was already quite short notice as it was.

Anyway, it wasn't me ... good thing we've got our tickets already. :ok:

trisco - September 14, 2007 01:11 PM (GMT)
I know the girl who is dealing with it is absolutely snowed under, I spoke to her yesterday and she isn't leaving the office until gone midnight it seems somedays although I guess the tournament is tomorrow.

I have just sent another mail so hopefully we may be able to say shortly.

Sam - September 14, 2007 02:22 PM (GMT)
ah well it aint me then roflmao

trisco - September 14, 2007 02:44 PM (GMT)
We have a winner! Will wait to hear from them before we announce here..

We also have a runner up in case the winner is not able to go due to the short notice.
Stay tuned folks who entered.

And to make things worse I was in a car on my way to plymouth...

mightyjeditribble - September 17, 2007 07:49 PM (GMT)
It's a pity that no-one was able to take the tickets. But Friday was really too late for them to announce the winner imo ... hopefully next year (if it takes place again) they'll be doing better in that respect. :ok:
