There are at least a couple of spaces available, possibly more, for the team comp which restarts tomorrow, Sunday 5th.
Briefly, you will be part of a team of eight, there are eight teams in the league, and you will be required to provide one Win or EW nap per week. Selections must be in at least 1hr before race time.
Sign in below if interested, the comp will run until Christmas
Not so briefly here are the full rules of the comp:
The Rules
Monthly rounds: Each team will have 8 selections per week, one from each player, duplicate selections are allowed provided they are made prior to 2pm Saturday, no duplicate selections within teams at any time. 10pts win or 5pts EW on British, Irish, French (as long as an industry SP is returned) or Dubai racing , selected any day, Sunday through Saturday, last race eligible on Saturday is 6.0pm. Settled at SP, EW terms as industry standard. Selections must be posted at least one hour before race time. Once you have posted a selection you are not allowed to change it or the stake, unless it becomes a non-runner or is a duplicate after the Saturday 2pm cut-off. Leaving reserve instructions not allowed. Non Runners - that team member may choose again for that week.
Wildcards will be available to make up shortfall of numbers or holiday absence. If they are confirmed in advance, then wildcards may be used anytime that following week. If not, then it will be treated as a late wildcard to be used only after noon on Saturday. Late wildcards will be available after noon on Saturdays to cover unexpected absence so if you may be leaving your selection til after this time you should let your team know otherwise they may use it. Maximum two wildcards or late wildcards per any one team member per week. If any player is absent for two weeks running without notice, they may be dropped from the comp.
Teams will start the week from a baseline of 0pts. This equates to 8 losing selections and/or non-selections. Subsequent scores will be added to this baseline plus return of the winning part of the stake (10pts for win and EW winner, 5pts for EW placed). All scores count. If there is a tie on weekly profit (or lack of) between two or more teams then the total points for those positions will be shared equally. Weekly winners will receive 9pts, runners-up - 7pts, 3rd - 6pts, 4th - 5pts, 5th - 4pts, 6th - 3pts, 7th - 2pts, 8th - 1pt Teams will receive 1 bonus point for each 66pts scored in any one week. This will count towards the monthly points total. If at the end of the month there is a tie on points between two or more teams then overall profit will be taken into account.
Points structure for overall yearly comp: Monthly winners will receive 8pts, runners-up - 7pts, 3rd - 6pts, 4th - 5pts, 5th - 4pts, 6th - 3pts, 7th - 2pts, 8th - 1pt + 8pts awarded at the end of the year for the best overall profit.

I`ve tried advertising on HR ud, but no luck unless Gaz came via that. May not have picked my moment but will raise it this evening. Have we now just one definite vacancy ?

salmon, I think there may be two vacancies in the Punts, not 100% sure, one now filled by Gaz, and one in the Lucky Pins, thanks for helping out.
GEORGE.B, welcome I'll pencil you in for the Lucky Pin Club, but will confirm a little later if that's ok.
