On a separate note players from the relics of our existing empire, such as
it is, can enter. Thus can we expect wads of players from Bermuda, or
Christians from Pitcairn? :-) what a bounty!

Dear Simon,

The sun has set on Pax Britannia.
And overseas players need not go 'back to dear old Blighty'.

Are players in Hong Kong not eligible to enter the championship of China?
On a more provocative note, are players in the Malvinas (Falklands) Islands
eligible to enter the championship of Argentina? :-)

Hurry me home to Blighty,
Blighty is the place for me!'
