Auckland Chess Centre, 17 Cromwell St, Mt Eden, Auckland
One 8-round Swiss, initially restricted to players rated over 1500
(FIDE rating). Space is strictly limited to 50 players; please join the
waiting list if you are not accepted immediately. The waiting list will
appear on this page. Note that players will be listed in the order in
which they apply, and will be invited in that same order.
So, if your FIDE rating is over 1500 now, or has been in recent lists
(back to January 2023), or might reasonably be expected to exceed 1500
on the July list (subject to confirmation and approval by the
organiser!), then secure your place by making an online registration and
paying the entry fee.
If you do NOT meet those criteria, then you may register, but please
don't pay at this point - you will be added to the waiting list. The
Vega list of confirmed players will be published.
The time control is 90 minutes for the game with 30 seconds increment
from move one.
The confirmed, paid-up players will be listed in the Vega files here.
