Darlington and District Chess League (DDCL)

League Rules For 2007/2008

 

 

Teams to play the games as laid down in the league fixture list.  If however a game has to be postponed then please notify the league secretary.

 

All players must play in strict grade order as per the official grading list and this grade must appear on the result slip.

 

Both captains should email/post the result slip to the league secretary within 48 hours of the match.

 

If a team can only raise 4 players for a match then they may contact their opponents 48 hours before the match and if their opponents agree they are allowed to play a 4 board match with Board 5 counting as a draw.  Remember 48 hours notice must be given and agreement reached, teams arriving a player short on the night without giving notice default Board 5.

 

Teams can substitute a player who doesn’t turn up after 30 minutes with another player regardless of grade.  The players’ clocks are not adjusted so the substitute starts with 30 minutes off their total time.
