BCC needs TDs

The Boylston Chess Club Needs Your Help

We urgently need more tournament directors to keep offering a wide variety of tournaments each month.

Please consider becoming a certified USCF tournament director (TD), if only to act as an assistant TD from time to time.

The certification process is extremely straightforward: 

1)  Read the USCF rulebook ("USCF Official Rules of Chess), available at the club or online, e.g., on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/United-States-Chess-Federations-Official/dp/0375724001/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437142481&sr=8-1&keywords=rules+of+chess).

2) Fill out and return the following form to the USCF:

Players, please consider helping out as a TD from occasionally to keep the tournaments we all enjoy running smoothly.  Parents, perhaps you can help direct while your child plays.

Please feel free to contact me or any other TD if you have any questions.  We look forward to working with you.

   -Andrew Hoy, Chairman of the Tournament Committee
