I think only one "national" I think the SOP will have the requisite names copyrighted or what ever its called, if not, they should have.but SOP will be still running the classes that they are today, no body said they would stop, and as long as there is entries for vintage, there is no need to stop, ans for a few on here to think SOP would stop running the national, are very much mistaken,
the only good side is the fact that there will be 2 nationals each year, frim 2 separate national clubs, this alone has to be a good thing, so more chance of ploughmen that want to plough at national level being able to achieve this, providing there is a type of qualifier type match at local level for both to keep the ploughing standards high, and not a free for all
i take it the new club will be making a new rule book, and new score sheets, and offering free plough judging seminars with free dinner in every county on the land, to get judges up to speed, ( and they complained about the cost from SOP) so will there be no charge ?
My post was an explanation for Howard.
