NOTE:
There are no
Long Play Replays for World Cup ties. Matches will go straight to
Rapid Play and/or Blitz replays as required - and these must be done on the
same night (or the tie will be forfeited by the player pulling out).
If a LP match finishes after 10.45pm on the night, then either player may
insist the match goes direct to a Blitz play-off; otherwise both players
would have to agree on there being no rapid play replay.

RESULTS FROM LAST SEASON (2018-19)
The World Cup is a straight knock-out event. Players enter in stages with the stronger players entering later and the weaker players entering at the start. The draws will be complete random in the main event.
EXITING THE MAIN EVENT
Round 1: All 3 losers drop into the Saucer
Round 2: All 16 losers drop into the Plate or Saucer depending
on ranking
Round 3: Most losers will drop into the Plate
Round 4: All losers out (and all rounds beyond)
HOW DO WE RANK PLAYERS?
To decide who starts in which round, we list by FIDE rating, with
estimates being given for those without published ratings. When deciding
who slips into the Plate & Saucer from losers in appropriate rounds, the same
rankings will be used.
However the seeding for the Plate and Saucer draws will firstly consider which
round a player has been knocked out in (and then ratings) when deciding how to
seed players for the draw and decide who starts in the opening round.
* The time control will be the same as for
the long play club championship - except for replays, where rapid play and/or blitz extra
replays are used.
* CCF will reserve the right to default any player who cannot play a match
by a certain deadline. This is not something we will use lightly but will
do so if it is necessary to ensure the completion of the event. Sometimes
it may be cruel, but we will do our best to accommodate everyone.
