Hi All

The new WBC sponsor fro 2009 - 2011 will be announced on 29th August, 2pm London GMT. That's about 11pm Aus time and 1am NZ time...

In similar style to the WBC Copenhagen online broadcast, there will be an annoucment on the WBC website at that time.

The 2009 Rules and Regluations and WBC documents are due for publishing this weekend - August 15th USA time so Sat/Sun for us here in the first few timezones.
