Sign up for the 41-point Handicap Tournament on 7/8/2014

KTTC IS HOSTING A CLUB HANDICAP TOURNAMENT ON TUES, JULY 08, 2014!

Back by popular demand, KTTC will host its second 41-point handicap tournament event on July 8th, 2014 Tuesday.

This will be a FAIR, FUN, & FABULOUS Event for all!  The format will be the same as the first time.  But we are going to bump up the prize money with $2.00 entry fee.

Please sign up in advance by emailing to Kathy McMillin (kathymcmillin@me.com).

HANDICAP RULES/FORMAT

  1. We will have 16 players maximum. The format is single elimination.
  2. Each player will pay only $2.00 to play.
  3. Winner of the tournament will get 75% of the money and 2nd place will get 25%. e.g. if we have 16 players entered the tournament, winner will get 75% of $32 = $24, 2nd place will get $8.00.
  4. Each match will be a single 41 point match with handicap given to a lower rating player according to USATT handicap scale. e.g. if Player A’s rating is 1650 and Player B’s rating is 1400, Player B will start the match with 14 points. So every player has equal chance!  Click here for the Handicap chart.  Also, previous handicap tournament players will have their rating adjusted based on their last performance.
  5. The draw will be done on 7/8 and matches will begin immediately after the draw. If we cannot finish all matches, those matches will be played on 7/10 or based on the players’ availability.
  6. Any player who does not have a formal USATT rating will be rated by the club officers.
  7. Draw starts at 7:30 p.m. and the matches will start around 7:45 p.m.

We HIGHLY ENCOURAGE EVERYONE to sign up and have FUN with this!
