Richardson, Spens, Nancy Elder and MacIssac

[andyburnett]

Just to be clear on something, we are objecting to a central venue but you want us to avoid dates for a competition that takes place at a central venue

Or am I getting this wrong?

The objection seems to be mostly that using a 'central' venue which is only 'central' for those in the 'central' belt is somewhat unfair to the less 'central' clubs

Would it be possible to have the different rounds in venues spread across Scotland? Round 1 in Aberdeen, round 2 Dundee, rd3 in Glasgow, rd4 in Edinburgh or whatever? Would that put off some clubs or perhaps make it more appealing?

I'm not really sure why the number of teams participating is hugely important to be honest. The SNCL covers mass team participation, the Richardson should cover quality and the Spens/Campbell can perhaps find its own niche.
