USTCL Update

Hello North Dakotans,

I have contacted the USTCL leader about the participation of North Dakota in next year's season starting in July. We met all but 2 of the requirements. However, DO NOT panic. The 2 requirements are small and we can easily take care of them by the start of next season.

The first requirement is to get to 25 members on Team North Dakota. This will likely take care of itself since getting 14 members in 7 months is pretty easy. However, the faster we take care of of this obstacle, the better, so feel free to invite anyone you know with a Chess.com account to join Team North Dakota.

The second requirement is to have at least 2 active admins. This is because if one of the admins becomes inactive, the other will take over and the club won't go dormant. If you are interested in becoming the second admin, say so in the club notes or the comments of this article. You could also send me a message @theegreentree. 

Overall, these requirements are easily fixable and it is EXTREMELY likely we will compete in the USTCL next season.

Merry Christmas,

Patrick
