Since 2008 the Spike! has been hosted in the Vancouver-area and welcomed fun and talented guests from across the world, including many from across Canada, the USA and Europe.
The most amazing part? Many of these Blood Bowlers keep coming back for more!
Spike! uses Tourplay for recordkeeping and Thunderbowl provides 40mm pitches and chess clocks.
You just need to bring your team and a good spirit.
This means players at every table have easy access to fair and transparent gaming conditions that keep rounds humming along.
For the first round only, we will do our best to pair players off against members that are outside of their home club via Tour Play.

Teams will resurrect at the end of each game. No SPPs, injuries or any roster changes carry over between games
The 4 minute time limit will be enforced. Each coach may use one timeout per half for an extra 4 min on those dramatic, big turns. There will be a chess clock on each table. If the timer runs out, finish the currently activated player's action and end your turn.
Games will have a maximum length of 2 hours 30 minutes. In the unlikely event that a game exceeds 2.5 hrs, time is called, the dice are down and the match is over. There will be no OT.
Players must agree on cocked die rules, the use of dice cups at the start of the match. Dice sharing is allowed and required by NAF rules if your opponent requests it.
If there are any disagreements or rules disputes, tournament directors will be standing by to assist.
All official teams are eligible.
