Kitchen-Table (Rapidplay) League page:
Starts in the Autumn.
A new league for busy Munster players who like to play short
games, and fewer of them ! Open to all ages.
Greetings Players !
This is a new chess league for Munster and is designed for
players who prefer to play shorter games. Adults and children
may play on the same team and can even be from the same
family. Teams will be grouped in a sub league with a minimum
size of three and the winning team moves on to the next round.
Teams of 3 players, Any age
Minimum 2 games each
Maximum playing time of 1 hour
Players must be resident in Munster
Prizes: Trophies/medals
fee: €10 per player, or €20 per family. Book now, pay later.
Playing Venues: Players may use their own club, home
(Kitchen Table!), hotel or pub, etc. Some pubs will be found
where players are allowed play their match, but will be expected
to buy one drink from the bar in lieu of rent. So far,
O'Driscoll's/Corbally and Southcourt/Raheen in Limerick are
available.
Divisions: If enough teams of widely different abilities enter,
different divisions will be created. The format of the League
after the first round will depend on number of entrants.
The minimum number of teams needed for the league to be
viable is three.
Incomplete teams: If a player wishes to play, but cannot form
a team, they may submit their name and a player will be sought
to complete a team.
Your rating: Please fill in your best estimate of your chess
playing ability. This could be a rating from fide, icu, ecf,
chess.com, etc, etc. Otherwise please give the approximate
months/years you have been playing.
Registration: Please fill out the down-loadable form (available
later) and post, or better still, register on-line in the 'Registration'
menu.
