2019 Medal Tournaments now open for Entry!

A bit later than usual, the 2019 Medal tournaments are now open for entry! See Payment Page of this website.

50% REDUCTION IN ENTRY FEES!!

Just like last season, we are maintaining the 50% reduction in Entry fees.ย  At ยฃ3.00 for a webserver tourney, and ยฃ2.00 for a Postal tourney, these tournaments are very good value. Especially considering that it is possible you could have as many as 12 games for that money. This yearโ€™s Medal events will start towards the end of March.

The winner of each tournament receives a BCCA Medal engraved with their name. Given that only the winner receives this prize, these tournaments reward positive play. Cautious play with players taking draws too quickly will not win a Medal.

Remember these tournaments are different to anything else BCCA offers!

Tournaments will again be offered on a Postal and Webserver basis. Players can enter both if they wish but only one tournament in each. Postal Tournaments will cost ยฃ2.00 but please note these are open to UK residents only. Webserver Tournaments will cost ยฃ3.00 and are open to all members. The Application form will be enclosed loose within the 2018 Yearbook (due to be posted shortly), or you can pay at this website on the Payment Page.

Postal tournaments will normally consist of 5 or 6 players (playing each opponent twice, 8 or 10 games) โ€“ it is not viable with less. Webserver tournaments should consist of 7 to 11 players (playing each other once) but as many as 12 games (13 players) is possible. So I ask players to be as flexible as possible so I can try and make sure everyone gets to play.

We look forward to receiving your entries!
Final Date for Entries: March 9, 2019
