Officials:
Clubs entering competitors in this event will be expected to
provide officials to assist with judging, refereeing, and time-keeping.

Refreshments:
The Leys Sports Centre has a small number of vending machines
for snacks and drinks. You are advised to bring some food and
water.
Accommodation:
No accommodation is provided as this is a one day GBSF event.
Anyone who needs to stay over, and would like details of B&Bs
or hotels should contact Ollie as early as possible. The Youth Hostel is next to the railway station,
and less than a mile from the venue - about a 10 minute walk
- but does need to be booked well in advance.
The GBSF National Assaut League:
The League has been running since 2006. Its main purpose
is to provide opportunities for competition for GB fighters.
Competitors from nearby European countries have also entered
previous events. To ensure the smooth running of events, it is
important that foreign competitors are accompanied by officials
to assist in judging and refereeing.
There will be 4 league events this year.
Event 1 took place in Oxford on 9th March, and was a great success
for the hosts Laura Gilbert & OxfordSavate. Future events:
