I don't think so. They've got results from Nov 2008 on there...

Does anyone know who the organisers are?

I looked at the November 2008 competitors and failed to recognise any of them.

OK, so this is a Michael Basman organised series?

Is it linked to the UK Land Challenge series?

Surrey Hundred tournaments are run by Mike Basman.
Events are listed on the Wey Valley website http://www.weyvalleychess.org/fixtures.shtml
There was one last November and the next is in March
I've never found ti easy to find results for resent tournaments on the website - how did you find them Greg?

Quite by chance I guess. I only looked in one place out of curiosity and found the results were from Nov 2008 and replied.
I went to:-
Tournaments
Make Me A Champion
2008
November

et voila! Quite by chance I assure you as it was the only thing I looked at on the website!
