Pasir Ris East CC Chinese Chess Invitational Team Competition

There will be another team competition this coming 18 Nov 2007 - Pasir Ris East CC Chinese Chess Invitational Team Competition. It will be held in the hall on the second storey of Pasir Ris East CC. The format of this competition is similar to that of the Albert Complex Chinese Chess Invitational Team Competition.

There will be 2 rounds. Round 1 will commence on 1200H and end at about 1400H. Round 2 will start at 1445H and end at 1645H.

The system is as follows:

1) There will be 11 teams. Every team can have a maximum of 13 members, inclusive of the captain and vice captain. All 13 players are able to compete.

2) In each round, every team will send out 10 representatives, which will compete with the other 10 teams respectively. There is a limitation of 5 RANKED players per round.

3) For every game, every player has 60 minutes of thinking time, with the player losing should he/she used up all 60 minutes. However, should a player whose position is obviously winning but with very little time (e.g. <5 min), he/she can request the arbiter to declare a draw. The arbiter's decision is final.

This competition will follow the Asian Federation rulings.
