New dates just announced

The planets have aligned ! 

And we have a date 14^th June 2014

Fame costs (so do sports days). And right here is where you start paying.

Event	Details	Cost per head
Go Karting	GP (not mentioned on their website) 10 mins qualifying gives your grid place for a 20 min race. All stats printed out at the end.	£45
Golf	Chessington Golf Course	£12.50
Bowling	Hollywood Bowl Tolworth 2 games inc shoe hire	£11
Afternoon	Unknown but if it’s Table Tennis	Free
Pool	If everyone plays everyone won’t be more than	£5
Darts		Free
Quiz		Free
Food and water	We’ll sort out on the day.
Total	Rounding off to	£75

This is just to give you an idea. I'd like to keep the budget under £100 but if Go Karting is not seen as good value for money we're looking at £50.

Other sports \ challenge ideas to make it up to 10 events (without answering the question Why?)

• Table Tennis (In my summer house, free)
• Chess (In pub, I have a chess clock to keep games moving quickly)
• Some form of arcade driving game (I think there is a multiplayer one at the bowling)
• Downing a pint (can be measured in minutes rather than seconds)
• Cribbage (In pub)
• Carrom (I have a board or in the Lamb)
• Golf driving range (we can make up some events, longest drive, nearest pin)
• Football (at a park with goals; penalty shoot-out, dribbling skills, keep-ups)
• Badminton, Squash, Tennis
• Football scores - Virtual Pools with betting shop sheets.

In the bin

• Archery (Can't find anywhere to just turn up and have a go)
• Texas Hold'em (Ian's got the chips but it would take too long)
• Laser Quest (Can't find one near by)
• 10km run
• Cycle race around Richmond Park

Maybe some of the ideas can be used as extra bonus events throughout the day?

If you think any of ideas might just work (including the ones in the bin) let me know.

Jungle Island Adventure Golf http://hortonparkgolf.com/jungle-adventure-golf/ some would say the only true test in golf.

Let's Go Karting

Surbiton Raceway seems to be the obvious choice with a couple of formats available.

Iron Man
This event can run for 30 minutes, 45 minutes or 1 hour and cater for between 5 and 15 drivers. The iron man consists of a 3 lap warm up session behind the pace kart followed by a rolling start in to fully marshalled racing conditions. The object is simple... race to win, winner takes all.

Sprint Meetings
Sprint meetings are held in a fully marshalled 'real time' racing environment. Aimed at individual drivers this event can cater for between 10 and 120 drivers and consists of four initial qualifying heats, followed by semi-finals and a chance to enter the 12-lap final.

Challenge 75 race
Challenge 75 is an ideal format to challenge your driving skills. After a one lap rolling start the race begins and finishes once the top 3 drivers have completed 75 laps. Have you what it takes to complete the challenge? The length of the race will depend upon your driving skills (Usually 30 to 45 minutes.) An individual race for 8 - 15 drivers.

I need to call to find out prices.
