Tashbash is back for a 4th year!!! 🎉This is a charity Blood Bowl tournament held to raise money for the https://uk.movember.com/ foundation and help raise awareness for mens physical health, mental health and suicide prevention. Even though the Covid pandemic and Lockdown are both a few years behind us now, the impact on people's mental health still remains. This ranges from increased anxiety and depression, through to suicidal ideation and suicide itself. Movember funds over 1250 projects for mens health across 20 countries! Together we can help raise awareness of these issues and help fellow Mo Bro.
The tournament will be held in the lovely (cough) city of Lancaster in the NW just off the M6 (So easy to get to). There are plenty of hotels in and on the edge of the city. Some great real ale pub (as well as not so great pubs) and a veriety of nightlife.

Stars Players are limited to 1 per team and they are capped at 200,000gps. The only exception to this is Stunty teams who are not capped at 200,000gps for their Star Player. Star players can only be included after the minimum of 11 players are are paid for as part of your roster.
