The 4NCL is organising its 1st Easter Congress from Friday, 19th April to Monday 22nd April at Holiday Inn Stevenage, St George’s Way, Stevenage, Hertfordshire, SG1 1HS. The 4NCL is seeking arbiters to work at this event, in support of the Chief Arbiter, who is yet to be appointed. The Congress will provide players with an opportunity to achieve arbiter norms as outlined below, or give established arbiters an opportunity to increase their current portfolio of events.

 

The arbiter will be required to:

 

  • Be able to communicate with players and the rest of the team of arbiters in English

  • Expect to be on duty between 1400 until play ends and pairings for Round 2 are published (approximately 2330) on Friday, 19th April

  • Expect to be on duty between 0900 until play ends and pairings are published (approximately 1930) on Saturday, 20th April and Sunday, 21st April

  • Expect to be on duty between 0900 until play ends and equipment is packed away (approximately 2000) on Monday, 22nd April

  • Hold any domestic arbiter qualification (e.g. a minimum of Level 1 in England)

  • Have a FIDE Arbiters Licence – English arbiters can contact Thomas Thorpe to arrange this.

  • Bring a computer with them in order to use Swiss-Manager or ChessBase as required.

 

The 4NCL will provide you with:

 

  • Accommodation (Bed & Breakfast only), paid for by the 4NCL in advance, at the hotel for 3 or 4 nights.

  • Travel expenses reimbursed at 30p/mile if driving, or the cost of a train paid by the Organiser within one week of the end of the Congress. Please note that applicants from outside Great Britain will only be allowed to claim travel expenses from the time they arrive in Great Britain (e.g. when you arrive at a London airport, or from London St. Pancras if travelling by Eurostar).

  • A tournament allowance of £225, paid by the Organiser within one week of the end of the Congress.

  • Upon a satisfactory performance, arbiter norms of the following type:

     

    • ECF Level 2

    • FIDE Arbiter

    • International Arbiter, but only if there are a minimum of 100 players in total in the three FIDE-rated sections. The 4NCL cannot guarantee that this Congress will receive this number of entries at this stage.

 

Applications must be received by 12pm GMT on Monday, 4th February 2019. A sub-committee of the 4NCL Board will then contact all applicants within two weeks to inform them whether or not they have been appointed as an arbiter to this event. Please do not assume you have been selected just by filling in the application form below.
