Format

This tournament is a double round-robin between 6 teams of six players each, and the two best teams qualify to final phase. Each team is composed by one "icon" on board 1, two male players on boards 2 and 3, two female players on boards 4 and 5, and one junior on board 6.

Scoring

Each game is scored according to:

  • Win with black: 4 Game Points (GPs)
  • Win with white: 3 GPs
  • Draw: 1 GP
  • Loss: 0 GPs

The match is scored according to:

  • Team that scores most GPs: 3 Match Points (MPs)
  • Team that scores the same as rivals: 1 MPs
  • Team that scores fewer: 0 MPs

After the double round-robin ends, the two teams with most MPs qualify to the final. The final is a best of two match, with a blitz game as tiebreaker.

Time Controls

Rapid 15+10. Players cannot agree to a draw before 30 moves each.
