This is an online event.
Joining instructions will be provided after booking.
The winning team will receive the Eve Stockwell Bowl at the AGM.
We will play 24 or 25 boards, depending on the number of teams. If 9-16 teams enter, we will play 5 x 5-board matches. With 8 or fewer teams we will play 4 x 6-board matches.
All members of all abilities are welcome to take part. Non-members are also welcome to play, but teams containing non-members are not eligible to win the competition/trophy.
Masterpoints will be issued at the usual rate, and the event will count towards NGS ranking (based on cross-Imps).
Please make sure you have a team as this event is not hosted. Please contact the Team Mates Secretary if you would like help with finding team mates.
After getting a ticket, you will need to be logged in by ten minutes before the start time.
In Swiss Teams your opponents in the first round are chosen at random. After that the Swiss element comes into play - in the second and subsequent rounds you are matched against a team that is close to you in the ranking list. This means that you are always matched up against a team that is doing as well (or as badly!) as you are. The better you do, the tougher your opponents are. You normally only play against another team once, so even if you are leading the field, you won't play against the team lying second if you've already played them. You'll be drawn against the closest contestant you haven't played before.
The final ranking is determined by the number of Victory Points (VPs) won by your team.
Victory points: a total of 20 Victory Points are shared between you and your opponents in each match. IMPs (International Match Points - the usual method used for teams scoring) are converted to VPs according to a scale provided by the EBU.
