Well done anyway. Nah I would've just thought that if you're serious about competing in Ireland's best competition and cutting weight, then not drinking loads 2 days before it even on Paddy's day would not be too difficult. I know what I would do (but Im legally not allowed drink anyway;)). There's also the rest of the year to drink while competitions arent that frequent.

I doubt I'd get down to 181 lbs with my gi by then anyways, so itll be 194.5 lbs for me, 185 without the gi atm, the beer shouldn't actually put me up a category I'd imagine, in fact it'll add some weight, might do me a bit of good actually :pac:

Just wondering, if we show up to the event half sober, can we still compete? I find it helps my creativity :rolleyes:

Liam,

Is there a deadline for early registration or anything like that or will it remain at 25 euros? Is there a general deadline set for it yet?

Liam_B

Danlen,


Reg FEE is 25Euro

March 17th is the Deadline
Late registration is from March 14th-17th. Late Reg Fee is 35Euro

Best bet is to get Registered ASAP.

Liambhoy I definitely won't be competing now so you can put me down to scoreboard or do some other official duties too. I fancy being a gi checker so if that position isn't already filled I'll take it.

Last year's event there was a list to sign up for the absolute divisions when you registered on the morning of the event, maybe it's the same this year.
