Make cheques
payable to '4NCL' and send along with your
entry to Mike Truran at The Old Farmhouse, 7
Church Street, Ducklington, Witney, Oxon,
OX29 7UA.
Captains will again be required to register
their players online. Captains will be sent
instructions for the use of the online software
and their login details shortly after the
closing date for entries. Any requests for
additional accounts for captains of individual
teams should be sent to Dave Thomas on
drt21@gmx.co.uk.
Initial player registration lists must be
submitted by close of play on
Thursday 13 October 2022.
The 4NCL rules set out the information required
for each player. Players named on the initial
registration list must either be registered with
FIDE prior to the list being submitted or
eligible and willing to be registered with them
as English players. Players registered with FIDE
as ENG, or not registered, must be ECF Gold or
Platinum members (or corresponding junior
categories) at the time the registration list is
submitted. This rule will be strictly enforced.
Please note that we reserve the right to refuse
entry to teams whose registration lists are
unacceptably late.
In Division 4 we will close entries before 4
September if we reach the maximum number of
Division 4 teams we can accommodate (34) early.
Entry fees are as follows:
Division 1, Division 2: £400
Division 3, Division 4: £250
Entry fees entitle teams to nominate up to 16
players (Division 1, Division 2) and 12 players
(Division 3, Division 4) in their team lists.
Nominated players taking team lists over 16
(Division 1, Division 2) or 12 (Division 3,
Division 4) in total will be subject to the
usual registration fee.
Registration fees and wildcard fees are as set
out in the rules.
We
have pitched entry fees at a level which is
forecast to make a small loss assuming reduced
commission income compared with pre-Covid levels
and no prizes. We will review the position at
the end of the season, and if we have surplus
funds they will be returned in prize money if
possible (or, failing that, a reduction in entry
fees for the 2023-2024 season).
