UKU Nationals 2019 - POTENTIAL SCHEDULE DISRUPTION

As you may be aware, industrial action by pilots working for Ryanair has recently been announced for the dates of August 22nd and 23rd, the two days directly preceding UKU Nationals. As a result there is potential for disruption for a significant number of the Irish players planning on attending EUCR-W that weekend.

As a result of this we are holding off confirming the schedule for the event until we have more information. All players and captains should be aware that there is the potential for significant changes to the draft schedule that has been published.

Thanks in advance for you patience as we work to make this the best event possible for all participants. All updates will be posted on the the UKU Nationals event website and via the UKU Event Announcements Newsletter.
