All games to be completed by 30 June 2024. Rate of play: 60 minutes + 30 second increment per move, 75 minutes + 15 second increment by mutual agreement, or if incrementing clocks not available, 30 moves in 75 minutes + 15 minutes quickplay finish. Starting numbers have been determined by random draw. The Trophy in each section will be awarded to the player with the highest point score.

GLCC LMS Tournament

Aim: to give club members the chance to play regular, ECF-rated games.

The GLCC League Management System (LMS) Tournament is free to enter for all GLCC members who have a current ECF membership. Lapsed ECF memberships will be required to be renewed. If you'd like to enter the tournament, please email Tyrone Jefferies, tournament organiser.

Competition rules

  • Ratings limit is U-1600
  • Games will be played every Tuesday evening at St George’s starting at 18.30. Close of play will be 21.45
  • Time control will be G60+30s
  • All moves are required to be recorded throughout the game

If you happen to be selected to play for a team, you won’t be paired for that particular Tuesday. If you are unable to visit the club on Tuesday, please let Tyrone know, and he won’t pair you for that particular Tuesday. You will be automatically paired for the following week unless you are selected for a team, or you have alternative commitments.

Players without an opponent in the draw will probably be paired to play either Delroy Bennett or Tyrone Jefferies - therefore everyone is guaranteed to play a rated game. Results should be reported promptly to Tyrone. Games will be automatically rated and will be included on the next ECF ratings update the following week. Second round games will be played with colours reversed.

Player Stats

 

Martin Trophy 2023-24

The Martin Trophy is awarded for the best individual performance in inter-club matches over the season (July 2023 - June 2024). Players must play at least ten games in league, cup or friendly matches for their score to count. Statistics are calculated for everyone who has played a match for the club. Thank you to Derek Hadley for calculating the Martin Trophy standings.

Below are the final standings as at 5 June, for players with at least ten games played. Congratulations to Tyrone Jefferies, winner of the Martin Trophy, in a very close three-way finish. Commiserations to Tony in particular, who played more games than anyone and was top of the leader board until the final match evening.

  Player Score Percentage
1 Tyrone Jefferies 10/14 71.4
2 Tony Packham 20½/29 70.7
3 Evan Beachley 12/17 70.6
4 James Gordon 14/22 64
5 Minh Tran 7½/12 63
6 Cecil Sloan 10½/17 62
7 John Lascelles 13½/22 61
8 Paul Chantrell 8/14 57
9 James McDonnell 14/26 54
10 Stefanus Phan 9½/19 50

Where players have the same percentage score their relative positions are determined by tiebreaks: (i) most games played; (ii) average rating of opponents minus player's own rating.

 

Keith Hylands

We are sorry to report the death of long time club member Keith Hylands, in Watford General hospital on 5 July, after a period of illness. Keith passed away surrounded by his family to who we extend our condolences. Thank you to Cecil Sloan for sharing this news. English Chess Forum tribute to Keith.

Martin Trophy 2022-23

The Martin Trophy is awarded for the best individual performance in inter-club matches over the season (July 2022 - June 2023). Players must play at least ten games in league, cup or friendly matches for their score to count. Statistics are calculated for everyone who has played a match for the club. Thank you to Derek Hadley for calculating the Martin Trophy standings.

Below are the final standings for players with the required ten games played.

  Player Score Percentage
1 Stephanus Phan 10½/12 88
2 Matthew Dishman 14½/18 81
3 Roman Ismailov 8½/11 77
4 Dmitry Vasiliev 10/15 67
5 James McDonnell 11½/18 64
6 Jason Rihel 12½/20 63
7 Toby Pleming 6½/11 59
8 Martin Scott 5½/10 55
9 Tony Packham 11½/22 52
10 Farhad Taghiev 7½/15 50

Where players have the same percentage score their relative positions are determined by tiebreaks: (i) most games played; (ii) average rating of opponents minus player's own rating.
