The ECF are proposing a county team competition that would run throughout June and July (possibly longer) with games every 1-2 weeks probably on Saturdays against other counties on chess.com. Games would likely be 45 mins + 15 (although possibly longer depending on feedback from the counties) over 12 boards. It's not certain there will be a grade limited section but again that will be determined by the response of the invited counties. Games would be graded on the ECF online ratings (completely separate from the usual ECF grades).

We are trying to gauge whether there's sufficient interest to enter a Leicestershire team or teams. Could you let me know if you might be interested in such a competition and whether it makes any difference to you if it's a grade limited section or not?
