This year we are allowing all active players at SOS and Carib to make up to 10 entries into the contest (all of these entries will be eligible for all the prizes however, winning entries will only be paid one prize, or part thereof, per entry). Each entry will cost $10.00 and will be automatically deducted from your account on submission of entry.

must be submitted BEFORE the start of the first game of the
1st round on Thursday 20th March 2008. A results page will also be available online, for all entrants to view their progress throughout the Tournament.
