Celtic Championships 2017
The Celtic Championship competition was inaugurated in 2003. It is designed to encourage communication between Ancients wargames players on the Celtic fringe. It is primarily an individual competition open to all. There is also a team aspect to it, teams may either represent a "Celtic" region and compete for the Celtic Cup or be made up of individuals/club-members and compete for the independent team trophy. Team scores are distilled from the performance of their constituent team members in the individual competition. Team members can play each other during the competition, but the Umpire will endeavour to avoid any such pairing.
