Rating
The FIDE rating from the March Rapidplay Rating Lists will be used to determine a player’s tournament rating. If they don't have a FIDE rating, we will use their ECF rating. For players who do not appear in the Rapidplay List, other lists may be used at the discretion of the organisers.
Rating Information – It is a condition of entry that players agree to their rating information being published on the ECF & FIDE websites. If key information from a player's profile is missing, the English Chess Federation may invoice them.
Pairings
Default time is 10 minutes after the start of each round.
