We hope everyone had as much fun as we did this past weekend at the A/BPU Warwick Qualifier!
If you haven't already, head over to shotslikesumo.com to order your photo packages!
Want to do it all again? We have A/BPU events coming up in Nottingham and Warwick across January, February and April but if those don't fit your calendar head across to the website and take a look at their event calendar for the year for plenty of opportunities to get back on platform
Once again, thank you all for an amazing day, and thank you to for being such an accommodating venue!
