Hypercell = Hyperhook!
Anyone interested in going can private message me. Entry forms and details can be found at www.bowling.com.bh
Quick summary of the event
Dates: Even though the entry form says Feb 17 to March 7, with 10 qualifying squads a day for the few final days arriving on the 2nd of March will give you plenty of time.
Entries: Expected 60-90, a few Internationals mainly locals and few Qatarians
Entry fee: With a couple qualifying attempts and finals your up for about $500 AUS
Prize Money: 1st $20000 US dollars - 8th place $1500 US - 16th place $1000 US. Car for a 300, daily high score awards also
Flights: Are available via Lorraine at travelworld for about $1580 return ex Brisbane flying Qantas and Gulf Air
Departure: Look at leaving Australia on the 1st of March with a 8th of March return
Accomodation: 4star staying at the official hotel for about $60 AUS per night (which could be split).
WAR: If war breaks out the event will be cancelled, until then it is definelty on. Travel insurance is recommended!!!
In summary about a $2500 trip. Last year the scores were extremely high! I would be surprised if that changed. It is a bit of a carry contest but hey, where isn't?
I have made a tentitive booking and I think my results from SA will decide my fate. Anyone interested??
