RBBOT · Futures qualifying

Any suggestions for improvements next year? One thing that springs to mind is picking a better end date - 2011 it was week 52 which was too late but this year's I think was too early due to a lot of late season british events being added. I think the day of the ratings run after the last UK event may be the best option.

Thanks for doing this. I seemed to get very close with the few players who did well but was over-optimistic on most of the rest.

I assume you mean the Monday just over a week after the end of the last GB Futures event (i.e. when the points go on) ... or the Monday after the last GB Challenger if that is the last home event of the year.

I'd make the end date the later of the date as per Steven's post ( based on when the last GB tournament counts for rankings ) and the first ranking date in December.

I appreciate that there may not be that many players playing on past the last GB tournament and I am not hat bothered, just my preference.
