        This will be round-robin team tournament.

        >> How many teams will be involved ?
        What if there are 10 teams ? will there be 9 rounds to play ?

        Will there be two sections ?

        Say one is for higher level ( avg 1800 and above ) and the other section is for avg 1800 and below ?

        Sorry for so many questions

          Unfortunately, new Willowdale Chess Club location is not big enough to accommodate comfortably more than 32 players (16 games - 4 matches).
          So, the maximum number of teams will be 9 - like last season (9 rounds with one of the teams taking a bye).
          If there will be more teams, we can consider separating them into 2 sections with games on different dates.
          That's why we ask all teams to register before the end of the year.
