PLEASE NOTE: The date for the tournament has changed

The 8th Swedish Open Table Tantrix Championship (‘SOTTC’) will take place on the 5-6th November 2011 in Trosa.

Last year entrants from 5 different countries took part, with Lewis Palmer from Sweden emerging as winner, László Szobonya from Hungary as runner-up and Swedish Lennart Aspelin took bronze.

If you’re thinking of entering, please read below to find out the most important information.

Where and when?
The dates are the 5-6th November. The times will depend on how many entrants we end up with, but approximately 9:00-17:00 on both days with a break for lunch sometime during the day.

The venue will be in Trosa.

On Friday night there will be a get together at Palmers place in Trosa, where food and entertainment will be provided (and the draw).

On Saturday evening we will go to a restaurant in Trosa for a tournament dinner.

Entrance fee and prizes The entrance fee will depend on the number of entrant, but is certain to be no more than 15 euros, which includes refreshments.

The winner will get a trophy to keep for a year. Medals will be given to the top three players. No prize money will be given.

Accommodation

In previous years many players have stayed at a hostel in Trosa called “Vandrarhemmet Snipan”. Their website is http://www.vandrarhemmetsnipan.com, where you can find information in English. Single rooms are from 28 euros per night and double rooms from 40 euros per night.

Other (more expensive) options in Trosa are the hotel Bomans, http://www.bomans.se, and Trosa Stadshotell, http://www.trosastadshotell.se, both of which cost about 100 euro per night.

How to get there?
When flying from abroad the closest airport is Stockholm Skavsta, followed by Stockholm Bromma and then Stockholm Arlanda.

From Skavsta you can get the bus to Nyköping, which only takes 12 minutes, whereupon you have about 1 hour by bus to Trosa. Cost is about 7 Euros per person, half price for people younger than 20. Tickets can be bought on the bus, but please note you can’t pay with cash, so bring your credit card.
If you’re staying at Vandrarhemmet Snipan they offer a pick-up from Skavsta for a cost of 40 euros.

From Bromma there are buses first to Stockholm, then train from Stockholm to Vagnhärad and finally bus from Vagnhärad to Trosa. This trip takes about 2 hours and costs about 20 euros.

From Arlanda you first have to take Arlanda Express (Train) to Stockholm, from where you take train to Vagnhärad and then finally bus to Trosa. This trip takes about 2 hours and costs about 36 euros. Please note that it’ll be more expensive if you buy a ticket on the train instead of booking in advance.

If you need help with booking tickets, just ask me and I’ll help you!

Tournament format
If not too many entrants the format will be all play all. Otherwise some kind of Swiss system or group system will be used. The exact format will be decided when we know the exact numbers of entrants. Also, please read the table rules and notice what differs from the online version.

Further questions…?
Don’t hesitate to contact Niklas, Monica, Lewis or Lennart and we’ll do our best to help you. Questions can also be posted in the forum thread.

Looking forward to see you all in Sweden in November!
Niklas
