March 24-30, 2025
This is an EXCEPTIONAL week of SILVER masterpoints for ALL of our games at the Club. You don't have to travel to a sectional tournament to win these points BUT the points will be the
same as if you were playing face-to-face at a Sectional Tournament. This is how it works. Clubs in Districts 7 (our district) and 11 will be playing games at roughly the same time we do every day. You earn SILVER masterpoints at our club in every single game.
Then your results will be compiled with the results from ALL of the clubs participating. These clubs will make-up the Sectional Tournament without your having to leave our Club to participate. Your scores will be assessed to determine if you will be awarded additional SILVER masterpoints!!!!
In other words...the scores at the other clubs are then compiled to make-up a SECTIONAL Tournament without having to be on-site at one location to play with other participating club members. That's right...we have the benefit of playing locally in our club instead of having to be onsite in one large location.
The Strats will be determined by the AVERAGE masterpoints of each pair. All games require players to play a minimum of 21 boards. The strats are as follows:
A: 2500+
B: 1001-2500
C: 0-1000
