CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP 2016-17
ENTRIES
It’s that time of year again where I ask for entries for our Club Championship 2016-17. Now we still have one match left to complete for last years Championship. Will Declan win again on his own? Or will Dariusz win to make it a tied championship (Declan, Andy Rowe & Ray)? We shall have to wait and see!
CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP 2016-17
Anyway back to this year’s Club Championship.
FORMAT: It will be a 5 round Swiss using “accelerated pairings” (Rounds 1 & 2 only!). Dates will be set and rigidly applied, no extensions! Remember you can claim a half point bye once in any of the first four rounds.
Accelerated pairings just mean that instead of top half versus bottom half in the first two rounds; it will be top half v top half; bottom half v bottom half (so to speak!). The reason… To give better matches grading wise to the higher and lower graded players, and then hopefully better matches grading wise for the rest of the remaining rounds.
If anybody would like more info please let me know.
So I now ask for entries for this years club championship 2016-17. Closing date for entries is Friday 7th October. You can enter by email, phone, text, or at the club.
I look forward to you all entering our top club competition. Hear from you all soon.
