Some people have been getting last years dates as they are getting old cahced versions of this page on the computer, you need to refresh the page and this should bring up the 2012 dates.

Why has the final been moved from last years venue? Thought the venue and day was well organised and was massively enjoyed by myself and family?

The final alternates between EICA Ratho and another venue each year, so this year it is the turn of EICA again. Also with the increase in the number of competitors in the final this year by one third, currently EICA is the only wall in the UK capable of running such a large event in a single day. In future years if we want to run the final elsewhere we may have to look at running the final over two days. But we will see how this years final goes before looking into this.
