Your rating can be checked by searching on Tornelo - our tournament management system.

Prizes for the biggest upset in each division. e.g. A low-rated player beating a high-rated player. The Biggest Upset prize is wholly at the descretion of the Organiser.
A special award for the player who gains the most rating points for the whole tournament. Note this is only for players with established ratings.
