Principle Judge: Jeff Young

ℹ️Rules:
1) 4 rounds, 2 each day, where every student plays in every round. (If there are an odd number of students, a student will get a “half-point bye” (equivalent to a drawn/tied game) each round. That student can optionally play a non-counted game against a coach or parent to keep them busy.)
2) 2 “divisions” based on student age, higher and lower. Students in each division will play only other students in the same division.
3) Once all students are signed up (recommend deadline of April 28), Mr. Young will determine the divisions and the pairings for all 4 rounds.
4) We won’t use chess clocks but will encourage players to complete their games within 20 minutes. If a game is running longer than 25 minutes we may have to “adjudicate” it as a win or a tie. If any two players paired for the 2nd round of the day complete their 1st games early, they can start the 2nd round early.
5) All players are encouraged to bring their own chess set and maybe even ask to borrow from other families.
6) At the end, players will have scores from 0 to 4 and be awarded accordingly
