The new tournaments are now up. Please read the updated Tournaments page as well for further information. Please note that there are three requirements this year before your name can appear in a club tournament:
1. You have joined the club.
2. You have joined the ECF so your results can be graded.
3. You have requested to join a tournament.
If your name doesn't appear in a tournament and you wish to be added please address the points above! If you still haven't appeared please contact the Tournament Controller, Andrew Caswill.
This year we are putting the emphasis on everyone committing to one tournament and completing all their games. If you really want or need to withdraw please do so promptly so that someone else can take your place. The tournaments are limited to twelve so once they're full they're full. The vacant places will be allocated on a first come first served basis. There will be another open tournament in the New Year for late joiners and members who have played most or all of their tournament games.
The Club Championship has gone back to being an all-play-all in order
to give the top players more opportunity to play each other. The Denman Cup is lower graded to allow new members the chance to join and fill the spaces during the year. The Tasker Tankard replaces the Eric Cohen with the generous gift of a silver tankard to the club by Neil Tasker.
***There will be a presentation of the Tankard to the Club next Saturday 13th at 6:00 pm in the bar when Neil will also be providing certain refreshments! All members welcome.
Please use the Members' Contact Details link on the Tournaments page to contact you opponents - it connects to a regularly updated google document where email addresses and 'phone numbers are interactive.
Good luck and, win or lose, enjoy your games!
