From 1st May 2021 (any closing or withdrawal deadlines from this date onwards) ranking will become the primary measure for acceptance for Grade 4 junior tournaments. This is in an effort to simplify our approach to tournament acceptance across the board meaning that Grade 1 – 4 junior tournaments will be based on ranking whilst grade 1 – 4 adult tournaments will be based on rating followed by ranking.

Grade 5 at both junior and adult age groups will remain as first come, first served for acceptance, with seeding for all junior grade 1 – 5 tournaments being based on ranking.
