Feb 23 2019 |
Venue: Moreton Hall Community Centre,
Symonds Road, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, IP32 7EE
4 sections: Open, Team 600, Team 500 and Team
400.
Teams
consist of 4 players from the EACU but not necessarily from the
same
club. EACU players are those living in or from clubs located in
or
affiliated to Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire,
Norfolk
or
Suffolk. Also eligible are people born in the county, 5
years
residence
in the county at any time, or currently attending a school
college
or university in the county.
The
Team 600 is for teams with an aggregate grade of 600 or less
in
the
January list though for this calculation anyone with a grade
under
100
will be taken as 100.
The
Team 500 is a team with an aggregate grade of 500 or less
though
for
this calculation anyone with a grade under 75 will be taken as
75.
The
Team 400 is for teams with an aggregate grade of 400 or
less
though
for this calculation anyone with a grade under 50 will be
taken
as
50.
There
will be a cash prize for the team with most game points in
each
category
but the number and value of prizes will depend on the
number
of
entries.
The
event uses the county match format of 2 rounds starting at
10.00
and
2.30. If digital clocks are available for all boards of a match,
the
standard time control will be 36 moves in 80 minutes, followed
by 15
minutes to finish the game, with an increment of 15 seconds
per move
from move one.
The
exact format of the competition will depend on the number
of
entries.
The entry fee is £20 per team payable on the day. The
clubs
that
won the top division of the six EACU county leagues (Bedfordshire,
Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Norfolk, Suffolk and Bury
League) in the last season are entitled to enter a team of
entirely
their club players at half price into the Open.
Tea
and coffee will be provided free of charge.
Enquiries
and entries should be made to ribbs@waitrose.com or
to
01223 842197. Entries by 9th February if possible please though
an
early
indication
that you might raise a team would also be much
appreciated.
Later
entries at the organiser's discretion.
If
you do not have the four players for a team I should be able
to
put
you in touch with others who would like to
play.
