NOTES​​

  • Tournament Directors will accelerate pairings to pair players close in rating when possible

  • Most recent "live" US Chess regular ratings used for all sections to ensure close matchups

  • SAC is a monthly tournament - the rating report is submitted on the last Sunday of the month, and a new event begins on the first Sunday of each month. 

  • All players must use CCC equipment - weighted sets and digital clocks provided

  • Players who no-show forfeit without notice may not be permitted to play in future events.

  • Prizes are not split but rather use the tie breaks:

    1. Most games played

    2. Lower rating
