After 5 very exciting rounds, it comes down to this event to crown the new English circuit champion. 6 out of the current top 7 in the table can still win the championship, but its current leader and winner of two rounds, Kevin Cordell along with inform, Matt Lampitt and round 2 winner, Justin Finch who are the strong favourites.
The Under 20’s championship will also be decided this weekend with current leader Jamie Warren being in pole position to win his first Championship.
There is also a keen battle to get into the top 10 of the championship table, with a place in this seasons Masters for all 10 players. According to the Super Subbuteo Computer, any players down to Joe Harrington in 37th place could still make the top 10, but it's Wolverhampton's Mick Hammonds who sat in 12th position, could squeeze in and make the cut.
So what's at stake for the players who make the cut?
