Note all players in your entry need to have their own personal MyABF account if they are to be specifically named when you lodge your entry.

If you are lodging an entry but are waiting for a teammate to set up their own MyABF account, you can lodge the entry with the player shown as "TBA" (to be advised). If so, please also add their name in the comments area - which is then visible to the Tournament Organisers and the director. The "TBA" can be updated when the player has set up their MyABF account.

Help on any MyABF issues is also available from Kim Reader - 0460 414 218 or convenor@surfbdge.com
