    Players should make use of this opportunity and keeping high standard of game is very important. Do not play this tournament for the sake of playing. Whatever you all do, do it with purpose. Then only, those who are responsible for ing you for higher level will consider. All the best to all participating players. Hope to see, some one from our Region in Indian team soon.

    it would have been better if the selection process was there..... because there are a lot of talented players in mangalore. and it is nt fine in making the teams of the own. and nw alredy 4 teams are done of the own.. no ion is been taken place. it will be a black mark on the ors. it will a partiality. if u do like this what should other talented players should do. so plz do a ion process and the players and among them make the players auction.
