This can be viewed here. Attention all WCU members! The WCCF has now created this major event and request that any interested WCU members who wish to try correspondence chess should consider entering. Anyone wishing to compete in this event will find information here. Due to technical problems I have decided that we will be moving over to Matthew Lunnon’s new rating software with immediate effect. Completing this process will take just a week or two. This obviously involves a short delay in publishing the 2020 rating changes following Hastings, Bridgend and several league matches. My apologies for any inconvenience this might cause. Can I also remind everyone that we are still looking for rating officers for the Gwent and North Wales zones. Jon Maybery has recently retired from the North Wales post after several years of diligent work on behalf of his fellow players – we badly need someone to replace him. Finally I would like to express my sincere thanks to Robert Taylor for his sterling work in creating (and maintaining) rating software that has served us incredibly well, under his guidance, for 12 years. Paul Orton National Rating Officer The deadline for entries for the 2019 award for games played in the calendar year 2019 is 31 January 2020; so there is still time to nominate a game (which need not have been played by the person making the nomination). The detailed rules can be found here but briefly to qualify for consideration a 2019 game must be a win or a draw by a player qualified to represent Wales in a FIDE competition against a non-Welsh opponent graded over 2250 and FIDE-rated at least 150 points above the entrant at the time the game was played. Entries should be sent to Howard Williams (howard.swnynant@btinternet.com).
