Time Control: G/40 d5 • 4 Rd Swiss • USCF Dual Rated Quick and Regular
Location: North Orlando Bridge Center
350 Anchor Rd. Suite 1040
Casselberry, FL 32707
Sections: USCF rated Open and Scholastic sections and an Unrated non-USCF section
- The Open section may be split into multiple sections by rating at the tournament director’s discretion if needed based on attendance and range of participant ratings
- Scholastic section entrants must be under 18 years old and rated under 1300 USCF. Over 1300 rated students should register for Open. Those under 18 and rated between 1100 and 1300 may choose either section.
- The Unrated section will follow USCF rules, but will not have cash prizes and will not be submitted to the USCF or require membership. It is intended for newer players who wish to get tournament experience. We will have special score sheets available for people new to chess notation to facilitate it, but keeping score will not be mandatory in the unrated section.
