The tournament will have three rounds and will be NWSRS rated.  Swiss Pairings will be used, which means everyone playing will play all three rounds. USCF official rules will be used.  Tournament Director: Randy Walther

This event is only for players familiar with chess and recording their games' moves using chess notation.

All players must register to play in advance via email to randywalther@msn.com. Randy will confirm all entries via email.  Maximum of 12 players.  

Check-in will be from 12:10 to 12:25pm. Late players will not be able to join tournament play.
