Web Server for All of Our Tournaments

Don't forget that you can use the server to play your Natcor games in all of our tournaments without additional fees! Server play can be guaranteed in our Continuous Tournament (RGCT) - just inform the Controller when you apply for new pairings. For our other tournaments the method of play must be agreed by your opponent(s) but our Controllers will always do their best to accommodate your wishes. So why not give the server a try? It's so easy: no clerical errors, your moves recorded automatically, no delay in delivery, your time worked out for you and no additional records to keep.

You can also register with our Match Captain to join one the teams representing Natcor in various matches with other clubs that occur during the year.

New President Appointed

Those present at our AGM on May 13th appointed Mary Deans as our Club President for the coming year in recognition of her contribution to the Club. Mary oversaw the RGCT for 6 years during which time she introduced a computer-based Exel spreadsheet system to replace the cumbersome card-index records thereby making the tournament easier to manage and more attractive to her successors. Congratulations, Mary!

Our All-Play-All Tournament Needs YOU!

Have you tried our Keith Richardson GM APA Tournament yet, and if not, why not? This tournament is in need of support from you, the members. The format is 5 players per tournament with each entrant playing only ONE game against each of the other 4 players, 2 games as black and 2 as white with a certificate for the winner. New blood is urgently needed to keep this tournament viable and make the efforts of our hard-working, dedicated APA Controller worthwhile. Please give some serious thought to giving this (and our other tournaments) your support. To enter or for more information email This email address is being protected from spambots.

Don't Forget To Report Your Results!

Please remember that you MUST report wins or draws to the relevant Tournament Controller within 7 days otherwise you risk forfeiture of the games. Games played on the ICCF web server are NOT reported automatically by the server to the relevant TC so please remember to report them yourself. This applies to ALL tournaments except the Webserver Triplets Section.
