MULLIGAN'S OPEN RESULTS!

First off, a huge thanks to everyone who came along this weekend. I am completely blown away with the sheer amount of people who wanted to come along this year. 106 coaches ended up competing in the end with 12 countries represented! I hope every single one of you had an amazing time.

It has been great to hear that so many of you enjoyed yourself so much and I hope to see you all back next year for what I hope will be even bigger and better than this year!

Also a huge thanks to Glasgow University Union for hosting us and to all of you who helped me out in many different ways throughout the planning and delivering of Mulligan’s Open, as well as helping set out the tables and chairs on the day, it was a massive help and I couldn't have done it without you all. The Blood Bowl community truly is amazing.

So the results... The full breakdown can be found on TourPlay (https://tourplay.net/en/blood-bowl/mulligans-open-2026-scotlands-naf-national/classifications) for those who want to see where they finished and below you can find the winners of all the Mulligan's Prizes.

Mulligan’s Open Info and Socials!

Good evening everyone,

We are almost there and there is only 3 days left to Mulligans! So I just wanted to share a little bit of info that may be of use to those who are joining us.

Parking

There is no free parking around the venue and the on street parking costs are pretty hefty. You are best parking at Lilybank or Kelvingrove Park and Ride and walking to the venue. Kelvingrove is the cheapest of the 2.

Entry time, Registration & Kick Off

Registration will officially begin at 9.30am on Saturday with the first round kicking off at 10.00am. However we do have the venue booked from 8.00am so if anybody fancies putting some tables out feel free to join me nice and early. The help would be much appreciated.

On the Sunday we will kick off at 9.30am. So please ensure you remember that and come in time for kick off.

Pitches

I have hired 4ft x 2.5ft trestle tables again this year so each game will have their own table. These tables will take GW sized pitches and your common neoprene pitch sizes so you can happily bring whatever you like.

All I ask is that when you put a pitch down, please leave it there for the duration of the day instead of picking it up from round to round. This will make life much easier for everyone.

For domestic coaches, please ensure you bring a pitch with you so that our guests coming from abroad don’t have to pack one for the trip. They have enough to worry about.

Bar

The venue has a bar. As such we ask that you do not bring in any drinks from outside the venue. If any are found venue staff will ask you to remove it and or potentially ask you to leave. The bar will open at 11.00am each day.

Socialising/Drinks

On the Friday we will look to have drinks at the Oran Mor main bar. This is located on Byres Road where you will also find lots of restaurants and other bars for dinner. I will be there from around 8.00pm so feel free to come along and find me for a pint.

Many thanks all, I look forward to seeing you all on Friday for pints or on Saturday for the event 💪

Today we have a wee participation gift announcement for the tournament… everyone who attends Mulligan’s Open will receive the following gifts:

1x Mulligan’s Open patch
1x Mulligan’s Open double sided keg token
2x Mulligan’s Open matte dice from Akaro dice

We are super happy with how the gifts turned out this year and they look super premium thanks to Made by Cooper and Akaro dice! You guys are fantastic to work with.

If you haven’t guessed it already by the photos, the theme for the gifts (token and dice in particular) this year is Scotland’s favourite p**s water/Lager Tennents! Which seemed apt given our move across to the West coast this year in Glasgow where the famous Tennents brewery resides 💪
