The competing bands at this year's British Open are being reminded to make sure they have got all their registration details in order well before the big day at Symphony Hall.

British Open
  Bands are being reminded to make sure registration issues are sorted.

The British Open Championship organisers have made a public announcement to remind competing bands at this year's event that they must have all their player registration details in order well before the contest day at Symphony Hall on Saturday 8th September.

Double check

A spokesperson told 4BR: "We wish to remind bands that they should ensure that all registration requirements are met so that there are no last minute problems.

We have had an excellent response, but we would ask bands to double check and to get in touch if they have any queries."

Contact

Each band has access to the on-line British Open registry and can contact British Open Registrar Colin Johnson on 01226 715893 or e-mail at: colinjohnson@thebritishopen.net
