ECF County & District Correspondence Chess Championships

Team Captain: Andrew Davies.

SINCLAIR division 2011

This season, the Staffordshire team will be competing in the Sinclair division.  In the Sinclair division, the team comprises 22 players.  You will be expected to make so many moves each month - and there is a provision if you are going away on holiday etc for a while.

The 2011 season is starting late, so if you are interested and get in touch quickly you could play for our correspondence team this season.  If you have any questions, get in touch.

Players have the choice of whether they want to play by email or post.

11 email players
Eleven boards will play their game by email.  Day by day, players email their moves to their opponent.  Your opponent will reply in the same way a day or so later.

11 postal players
Eleven boards will play their games by post.  You post your move to your opponent, and a few days later your opponent's reply will arrive in the same way.

Postal players also have the option of sending their moves to their opponent by email - if both players in the game agree.

Correspondence

In correspondence chess, you play your games either by email or post.  After deciding what move you are going to make, you send it to your opponent either by email or post.  Your opponent then replies in the same way with his move.

You should note that normal ECF grades are for games played across the board, so the results of correspondence games will not effect your normal grade.
