The provisional dates for 2023 Interclub events have been published.
Please remember that if you are in our GM coaching groups, you may only
represent North Shore CC - you may not play for another club.
All events (except possibly the Junior) will be played at ACC.
Dates are: A-grade interclubs: 18th June, 2nd July, 9th July, 30th July,
20th August.
B-grade interclubs: 3rd September, 17th September, 1st October, 8th
October, 29th October.
Junior interclubs: 28th October.
Blitz interclubs: 9th December.
Daniel Johns is Captain for the A-Grade: email danieljohns59@outlook.com
Soon we will hold our Club Championship. Like the Autumn tournament,
the Club Championship will be split. There will be a 9-round
all-play-all for the highest rated 10 players (2 catch-up nights), and
an 11-round swiss B-grade. It is very important that you sign up early
because we need to get the A-grade composition sorted by 14th June! (If
you enter after that, you will automatically go into the B-grade.
Likewise, if you think you may miss quite a few rounds, you should
choose the B-grade). Please see our Schedule (on the Menu) for more
information.
Please email Helen heligan@heliganchess.nz
if you want to play in the Club Championship. After 14th June, please
email Daniel Johns instead to enter or to inform about absence for any
round: danieljohns59@outlook.com

Please check the link on the Menu! This event is strictly limited to 50 players so it is currently open only to those rated over 1500 FIDE (see the dedicated page for full details). Entries will be CLOSED when there are 50 over 1500 players so please enter early!
We will be holding a one-day Open Fischer-Random Championship later in
the year, thanks to a kind anonymous donor who has put up $1500
towards the prize fund!

Championship!

This year we will continue to NZCF- and FIDE-rate as many events as
possible. This applies to the Lightning Championship, all the legs of
the Rapid Championship, and all the standard-rate events, ie Summer Cup,
Autumn and Spring Tournaments, and the Club Championships. Players MUST
be paid-up members of the North Shore Chess Club in order to take part
(yes, it is OK to be a member of other clubs in addition). Players who
are not NZ residents or citizens must have FIDE ID from their home
country.
In 2023 the following will still apply:
If you have had Covid recently, then we recommend that you do not
return to chess club until your RAT test is negative. Let's keep
everybody safe.
Masks are still required for everybody at the club.
