What still needs confirming

A working list for the club, not for families. Everything here is either invented placeholder content, a figure we have not had confirmed, or a decision still to be made. Anything marked Sample content on the site appears here.

These are visible to anyone on the site right now, each marked with a sample chip where it appears.

Tournaments

Dates still to be published

Every other event on the interest list has its 2027 dates posted by the host and checked in October 2026. These do not, so the window shown to families is last season’s weekend carried forward, and each is marked unconfirmed on the schedule page.

Waiting on the host
