Players must CLICK THIS LINK TO BECOME SILVER MEMBERS OF THE ECF (SEP 2019 TO AUG 2020)
(this is FREE for the first year and currently £6 thereafter)

Anyone not already registered with FIDE will be registered as 'ENGLAND' unless you tell us otherwise, but in this case you must obtain your F.I.N from your
chosen Federation before the event

• Eligible:  Anyone of Primary School age attending school in the traditional Kent boundaries (as accepted by CCF).  No entries can be accepted on the day and once entries close, only those players listed on this web site will be able to play.    Click this link to see how players are allocated into teams or the Schools' Individuals' Challenge.

• Venue Address: Christ Church Primary School, 1-3 Redhill St, London NW1 4BG

• Parking:  There is a car park belonging to the school that you should be able to use.  The entrance is just to the west of the school and just to the west of the little river that flows between the school and the car park - called "The Beck."  If you look at the map linked above, the entrance to the car park is where the S  of Creswell is.  To get into the school grounds after parking, walk over the footbridge which can be found down the alleyway at the south-east point of the car park.  Under no circumstances should anyone bring their car onto the actual school grounds; there is limited parking there which is reserved for staff.

• Trains:  The venue is approximately 13 minutes on foot from 3 London Underground Stations: Great Portland Street Station (Circle Line, Metropolitan Line, Hammersmith & City Line), Regents Park Station (Bakerloo Line) and Warren Road Station (Northern Line & Victoria Line).

• Buses:  Bus 88 runs up Albany Street - if you disembark at the "Cumberland Street" stop, you will be 2 minutes from the venue.  Other bus routes in the area can be seen on the Great Portland Street & regents Park bus spider map.

• Arrive: Between 1pm and 1-30pm.  Earlier is better as it relieves pressure on the signing-in desks.

• Running Late on the day?:   You will be given an emergency mobile contact number in your confirmation email (sent 2 days before the event).  If you are going to be late, please text that number.  Please text and advise as early as you can if you think there is going to be a problem as players may lose their place in a team if they turn up late (decisions will be made at 1-35pm) to try and ensure a prompt start time.  We prefer texts and calls clog up the phone for emergency contacting; texts can be dealt with as available.

• Not coming?:  Please follow the same instructions as for those running late; just one child who doesn't turn up without any notice can delay the competition whilst we re-structure the teams to ensure an even number.

PLAYERS NOT BOOKED IN (IE NOT) PAID WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TURN UP ON THE DAY AND PLAY.  Please enter direct with CCF and do not hand entries to school offices or trainers.  If they fail to reach us or are incomplete, players will not be included.
