Richardson/Spens - what next?

[Keith Rose]

Central venue, competition runs on 2 full days e.g. 2 Saturdays or 2 Sundays.
2 games per day, one game in the morning, one in the afternoon.
8 teams, split into 2 groups of 4, who each play a round-robin.
Rounds 1 and 2 are played on day one, am and pm games.
Round 3 of the group games is the am game of day two.
In the afternoon, play 1st/2nd, 3rd/4th, 5th/6th, 7th/8th play-off games, like in hockey competitions, according to ranking within the groups.

I can see two likely obstacles regarding central venue scenarios: finding a venue suitable for 8 teams and the cost of hire.

If anyone thinks they can find such a place at a reasonable cost (i.e. low!) please come forward.
