Hello dear all, it's time to *register for Pandanet league season 2018/2019*
If you don't know it, Pandanet League is an european team tournament played on Pandanet server (for preliminary rounds) followed by a qualification tournament and the final which will be played at next European Go Congress, in 2019 in Brussels !

How it work: about one game played every 3 weeks, on tuesday evening (usually start at 20h) on Pandanet Go Server. Each team has to provide 4 players for the matchs to avoid penalties. Players are selected by Team Captain (me for Belgium) ofr each match. Next season start in september and first match should be around 3rd week of september

A team is composed of 6 (min) to 12 players (max). So in order to have flexibility in the choice of players, it's better to have a full team of 12 peoples ! (It's better to have a weak player than no player at all which result in penality).

Who can participate ? Any Belgian Citizen which is a member of Belgian Go Federation.

You'll have to be ready to play on tuesday evenings (for about 2h30) and ready to be fair-play (you'll have to sign an agreement that you wont cheat, use book or bot during your games), be ready in time for the games and greet the opponents. (And in case of problem, it's the team captains who try to find an arrangement).

You want to participate for Belgium ? (which has been promoted in B-League and thus as a chance to participate to qualification tournament in june) ? Please fill this doodle and contact me here, through Facebook, or ask liusasori on KGS Go Server or answering me by email (for older team players).

Gabriel Mercier.
