Terms & Conditions
- 2 evenings – Round Robin each session.
- 7.25pm Draw / Clocks 7.30pm.
- You must be present to be in the draw.
- No late entries on the night.
- The player with black pieces chooses which side of the board they wish to sit.
- Before play begins, both players should inspect the position of the pieces, since once each side has completed a move the position on the board remain set.
- If the king and queen are set up incorrectly, it is legal to castle short on the queenside and long on the kingside.
- A player who has played an illegal move must retract it and make legal move with the piece touched prior to the buzzer. If no legal move exists with that piece then they may make any legal move. Illegal moves unnoticed by both players cannot be corrected after the buzzer. An illegal move is completed when the buzzer sounds, whereupon the opponent may claim a win.
- If an illegal position is created or an illegal move made without the opponent making a claim, the position stands and a claim not allowed when the opponent has determined a next move.
- A legal move is completed when the hand leaves the piece.
- If a player accidentally displaces one of more pieces, they shall be replaced in that players time.
- Tie break – 1st place only – if two or more players finish with the same number of points then a play-off with those will take place until a winner is determined.
