Each team will be created with players from the different levels so that the teams are roughly even in strength.
2024 Fall Team League - Conditions of Contest
Leagues play selected Sunday afternoons from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
Sign up as a single. Players under 500 masterpoints may sign up as a pair. The coordinator will form teams from singles and pairs.
The captain must ensure that the team has four players at each game.
A team has 4 to 6 players. Only 4 play each night.
A temporary substitution will be allowed at the coordinator's discretion.
Players pay the regular club game fees and are committed to play until the event is finished.
Usually, games take only 6-7 weeks to declare a winner, ending in December.
Players get masterpoints for each win and overall masterpoints if they play at least 3 games.
All players who play in the Team League will play against only players of equal ability. E.g. Players under 500 masterpoints will not play against the opponent's Open players.
A match will consist of 24 boards. After 12 boards have been played, the team will compare scores. Substitutions are allowed at half-time.
If a date is a problem for fielding a team, please let David Baker know. We'll try to find a substitute or a different date for the match to be played. We'll do our best to not let the dates be a barrier to joining the league.
