NWR RULES TO REPRESENT THE NWR TEAM

In order to create fairness and openness, the NWR committee has defined the rules for players to represent the NWR chess team.

It is advisable to enter as many tournaments as possible so that a fair assessment can be made as to a player’s strength. It is also required that players play as many NWR tournaments as possible to enhance their chances.

Players must play at least one of the following:

ü ü Blairgowrie tournament

ü ü Cliffview tournament

ü ü Any tournament from another union, to be played this year before the NWR team is chosen. In this instance, it is the responsibility of the player to inform a member of the committee of the tournament played, date, score, opponent and results of each game. (The committee cannot know which tournaments players are participating unless they are informed).

ü ü NWR closed

The NWR trials compulsory.

Anyone wishing to represent NWR that has not played in these tournaments must notify a member of the committee in writing before that specific tournament ends.
