It would save a lot of time and money for us far away schools to have this on ACF regionals Sunday.

We might consider going to the Canadian Regionals if it were paired with Oxford Open.
EDIT: Would this use the British or the American set?

We're not currently aware of which school will be hosting ACF Regionals, but if it's someone in the area, we'll definitely take that into account and look into organizing a double-tournament weekend.The United States of America wrote:It would save a lot of time and money for us far away schools to have this on ACF regionals Sunday.

It was my understanding that McMaster has bid for ACF Regionals, and that no other school in Canada has. Can people confirm this? It could go a long way to sorting out the schedule...
