Arrangements
-> A few days before the preferred date, the organiser will circulate the draw in an e-mail. Players should contact their opponents to confirm their availability for the preferred date and time or agree an alternative*. In the absence of any contact between players, the preferred date will be
assumed to apply. *Please have the courtesy to inform your opponent in advance if you can’t make the preferred date.
-> If you are having difficulty getting a fixture played, please contact the tournament organiser. No result + no communication = loss by default!
-> Results will be submitted for CS grading. Consequently, games must be played over the board
and the minimum time limit must be respected.
->It is the responsibility of the winner (or White in the event of a draw) to report the result to the
organiser. Results should be reported by the deadline for the round. The organiser would
appreciate the result being reported as soon as possible after a game is completed.
->The winner will be declared Bon Accord Club Champion for 2023-24.
->In the event of a tie, a play-off will be arranged.
