Competitors will play all rounds in this swiss system event.

All players are required to follow this order when making each move: Using one hand, pick up the piece and move it to the selected square. The move is not completed until the piece is released on the square. Using the same hand you moved the piece with, press the button on your clock ending your turn. Only then do you write down your move.

To castle use only one hand: first pick up the King and move it two squares toward your Rook. Release the King and with the same hand, pick up the rook and place it on the other side of your King. Using the hand you castled with, press the button on your clock ending your turn. Next write down your move.

Pairings are posted no sooner than 15 minutes before each round begins. Pairings will be available on the internet in addition to the printed site pairing lists.

No phones or watches are permitted in the playing area.  After finding your round pairings, please check your phones and watches at the TD table before entering the playing room.

As tournament is FIDE Rated, we will use the 30 Minute Forfieture rule used in all FIDE Tournaments. Players must complete their first move and button push, within the first 30 minutes of a round starting or be forfited.

There are no last round byes.

For Pairing purposes, USCF Ratings will be used for all players.*
