Proof of Age:

Although this is a fun event we do not want people playing in the wrong category and gaining an unfair advantage. 

Please bring proof of ID if you are playing in either of the senior or junior categories. The category age cut offs are effective as of the day of the competition so if you turned 16 on 25th April then unfortunately you will need to play in the mens or ladies category.
