Don’t Be cRule – New Post Series

I’ll occasionally be posting on rules matters that show up in WCC or other local events as TDs discuss them. 

I hold a Local TD certification but there are a number of Senior TDs in our local rota, and I certainly rely on them when necessary (with attribution). 

I’ll usually cover one or two topics in each post, and I’ll try to begin with OTB ground rules and common scenarios. Even if you’re an experienced player, it may help (or even save you ½ point here and there) to be well acquainted with these… 

Items on my initial list to cover include:
  • Getting rulings during a game
  • How to offer a draw properly
  • How to claim a draw properly (not the same thing as above...)
  • Keeping score, taking notes, electronic scoresheets
You can always drop me a line at chess@demastri.com if you want to see anything covered.
