Championship of Champions XIV

From Countdown
Revision as of 18:34, 28 July 2015 by JohnnyCanuck (talk | contribs) (Breaking news. Stay tuned!)

Championship of Champions XIV will be the next Championship of Champions tournament. It is currently in the process of final confirmation. Its transmission is scheduled for the start of January 2016, occupying the first three weeks of Series 74.

CoC XIV's existence was announced on the C4Countdown forums on the evening of 31 July 2014 with initial plans for a January 2015 transmission date. However, it was later postponed twice, firstly to make way for the special episodes at the end of Series 71 and the second to avoid undue interruptions as a result of horse racing in the summer.

The Countdown Team has announced that CoC XIV will feature sixteen top players drawn from Series 67 through 72. Series 73 finalists are not expected to participate because filming is scheduled to begin only the day after the Series 73 finals.

The bracket structure and first-round pairings for CoC XIV are expected to be announced within a week (as of 28 July 2015).
