We need to know if you want to play in this event. It is a Fixed Roster Lichess event.

Similar  format to the Online Olympiad with a faster time control.

I want both sides to publish their Teams by about mid-March so we can generate more interest.

15 minutes per side with 10 sec. increment.

10 players.

Six Adults

4 Juniors 1x U/18, 1x U/16, 1x U/14, 1x U/12

Two of the 10 players have to be female.

This is not a mickey mouse event where someone phones around a couple or hours before trying to scare up a team.

If this goes well, we will be playing teams from all over Australia and others in our time zone.

Kids, get this on your resume – playing for the all conquering RCC at the age of 10 or whatever.

YOU NEED A  LICHESS ACCOUNT – IT IS FREE!!

TRIAL PLAYING AGAINST A FRIEND. THAT IS HOW WE WILL CONTACT OUR OPPOSITE BOARD.

RCC PLAYERS – EMAIL ME AND TELL ME YOU WANT TO PLAY

WE NEED TWO FEMALE PLAYERS – PUT YOUR HAND UP AND YOU ARE IN THE TEAM

WE NEED FOUR JUNIORS – SHOW SOME INITIATIVE – PUT YOUR HAND UP
