to become the Top Trumps Tournament Representative in your
school for the duration of the Programme.

Getting Started
- Everything you need to get started is included in your Welcome
Pack. The Rules on how to play the actual Top Trumps Tournament game can be
found in the box itself.
- Display your Tournament Poster in a prominent place and fill it
in as your School Tournament progresses.
Your School's nominated Top Trumps Tournament Representative should arrange
for any participating pupils to play the Top Trumps Tournament game over a
period of time that suits your school. Each game can be played with a
maximum of 6 players (a minimum of 2) – the winners from each group will
then go on to play each other in a straightforward elimination process,
until you have one outright winner. Your school can play as many, or as
few, rounds as you like, but you must end up with a Final for your school
and 1 ultimate winner.
You have until Wednesday 29
th February 2012 to complete your in-school Tournament and notify us of your School Champion.
Your school's final round will determine who your School Champion is! Your School Champion can then be awarded the Top Trumps Tournament School Champion Certificate (provided in your Welcome Pack).
