Tabs

Thanks to everyone for coming to ICYD yesterday.

Congratulations to St Paul's B - Joe Levin and Rahul Dev - on their win, and also to Dulwich A, Westminster A and Loretto on the Green B for reaching the final, and Louis Collier for topping the speaker tab.

Thanks once again to our organising committee (Matt, Ben, Scott, Nicole and Lauren), to the adjudication team (Ben and Jen), to the Union and to Weige, for tabbing.

Now Accepting Requests for Additional Teams

We are now accepting requests for additional teams. If you would like to register for more than two teams, please send an email to icyd09reg@googlemail.com, entitled 'Request for Additional Teams', stating

1) your school,

2) the regional round that you are participating in

3) the number of teams that you have already registered (1 or 2), and

4) the total number of teams that you would like to send.

Participation of each additional team will incur the same registration charge of 36 pounds per team. Requests will be confirmed by email, after which you are requested to send the additional registration payment to the address below:

Attn: Weige Wu, ICYD, Oxford Union, Frewin Court, Oxford, OX1 3JB

If you have not yet paid for your first and second teams, but would like to request for additional teams, it would probably be more convenient for you to send payment for all teams together after confirmation of your additional teams.

We wish you a good term ahead!
