Club Tournament
This is a new tournament running with our congress to see which is the best performing Club at the congress and a £400 prize will be awardrd to the winning Club along with a commemorative plaque.
It is highly likely this will become a feature of our future congresses and hope will help Clubs thrive.
Requirements
- Clubs must be affiliated with a federation such as the ECF and have their own bank account
- A minium of 6 players are required
- Clubs can join together (maximum of 2) but they will then have to share any prizes - it'll be upto the individuals to declare a proposed partnership and inform others to join the combined club!

- 3 points will be awarded for all black wins
- 2 points for white wins
