2024 Big Boards Leg 2 Nov 19
Note that only the top 40 boards are used in determining the winning team. Norths won the second leg by 20.5-19.5, which was exactly the same score by which St George won the first leg. Thus, the net result was 40-40, with the competition being declared a draw. Both teams’ names will be engraved on the John Kellner/Terrey Shaw Memorial Trophy.

Individual Results in List Form (up to Round 9)
This is a 9-round team round-robin chess tournament, with games played under a ‘classical’ time control (75 mins + 10 secs bonus per move). There are ten teams with five players in each. The Club Captain (Charles Zworestine) places the players into teams such that each team has, ideally, an equal chance of winning the tournament. Within any one team, the players are sorted (by their ACF rating) to play at Board 1, or Board 2, or Board 3, and so on. On any given night, if you have been designated, for example, as a Board 3 player, you will play a single game against a Board 3 player from one of the other teams.
