The Finals will be USCF rated, but the quailifying events will not, so players must be USCF members in good standing in order to play in the championship Finals. NDCA membership is also required for the Finals. Please bring proof of memberships or be prepared to purchase them during registration.

Time Control: Game/45, with 5 second delay.

Schedule: One round will be scheduled per week. All games must be contested at the normal meeting of the ChessNuts Chess Club. Entrants will be permitted to play one additional round per week to allow for flexible scheduling. Missed games will be counted as forfeit losses if not completed during the next regular meeting of the ChessNuts Club, or special arrangement made with the TD. All games for the qualifying event must be completed on the final week of the schedule. Weeks that the ChessNuts Club does not meet are not counted toward the tournament schedule.

Prizes: Prize fund will be 90% of entry fees, with at least half used for the Q2 event and the remainder reserved for the Final Event prize fund.
