The draw for the first round of both events was made immediately after yesterday's Mike Closs Memorial Tournament, with one draw being made by the players and the other by Evie and Jessica, two local juniors who happened to be on hand at The Keys.
Project 30 KO Tournament
Each of the rounds will feature one game played at the normal time limit (36 moves in 90 minutes followed by an extra 15 minutes on each clock to play to a finish). Colours will be decided immediately before the games in the usual fashion.
Drawn games will require a replay with colours reversed, which can be played at any time limit agreed by both opponents. If both players cannot reach agreement the aforementioned timings will be used.
