N&EMPF Inter-Club Projected Digital Image Championship 2024

After two years of CFH (Competing from Home) we now feel that we able to compete in person, we hope that you agree with this decision and look forward to seeing you all again.

The purpose of the competition is two fold – to find the Champion N&EMPF Club, and the two clubs to represent the federation in the PAGB National PDI Championships at Warwick University on 15th July.

The competition will be held at Arnold Leisure Centre, on Sunday 5th March, starting at 1.45pm and there will be an admission charge of £3 to cover expenses. The AGM is at the same venue in the morning and admission to that is, of course, free.

The judges will be:
  • Erica Oram CPAGB AFIAP BPE3*
  • Sue Hutton ARPS
  • Ralph Duckett MPAGB EFIAP/p APAGB

The event will run in the same manner as 2020, and the rules are exactly the same as 2020 except that the dates have been changed.

The electronic transfer system which has worked for several years is unchanged, and the operating system introduced  in 2019 worked well in 2020 as well, so is also unchanged.

If you have any questions please ask – I am here to help.

To enter just send me an email before 15th February 2023 giving:
  • Your club
  • Your name
  • Your phone number
  • Your email address
