Q1: Did you attend the player briefing? If so, was the information well-presented and useful? Was the scheduling of the briefing convenient?

Generally positive but there were comments about smallness of marquee where it was held, how inside a building would have been better to make hearing easier and the absence of the Egyptians (because of the prohibition on hard hoop running in practice which they did not obey).
