Club night 16th September
We have a rare occasion when all 4 club organisers are either playing away matches, invigilating or away, so there is no one to open and close the club venue next Tuesday evening.
I’m looking for a volunteer to perform this task, please. It’s not an onerous task, and I will send full details, including the keycode, etc, to the individual concerned.
Stratford vs Worcester - ECF LMS results
Here are the results for the match on the LMS: Stratford vs Worcester
LDCL Indvidual KOs
Tom Darling writes:
I'd like to check for interest in our league-wide individual knockouts in the upcoming season. Each of these will run if there's enough interest - four players or more. They're open to any registered player, league-wide, though the second and third competitions listed are restricted to players whose registered grade is below the number given. Contestants will play roughly half their games at home and half away.
- Open
- Under 1650
- Under 1450
- Handicapped rapidplay
The first three of these are played at standard league time controls and are graded. The rapidplay is a set of three games each lasting one hour, with higher-rated players having less time on the clock. I'll give more details on the format once I know which are running and with how many people.
Please email me at tomjd1978@btinternet.com to express an interest.
ECF Membership
All.
May I remind all club members that if you are playing in the League this season you need current ECF membership.
There are a number of club members who's ECF membership has not been renewed for this year and which expire at the end of August.
To renew ECF membership please go to: https://ecf.justgo.com/.
Thank you.
