Season 07: Swiss 45m+45s (1 Round every 2 weeks, start on Jun 09, 2025)

Hi everyone.

I created this 90m+30s Team mainly and initially for practicing 90m+30s and I will keep that as our main tourney.

I added Swiss 45m+45s tourney by request of some members who are not able to spend 3 - 4 hours for 90m+30s game. The duration of a 45m+45s game can be as long as 2 - 3 hours if both sides used all time on the clock plus added increment.

If you want to know more about the history of our club, pls visit

Format & Rules

Time control is: 45m+45s

All games should be played Rated

Grace period (waiting opponent to come) is 20 minutes

Step by step instruction to contact your opponent & play the game

(Step 1) You will negotiate (privately via chess.com inbox message) with your opponent for the agreed date/time for playing the game

(Step 2) After both of you agreed, then please write at comment section in this forum page about date/time you will play it

(Step 3) Once game finished, please write at comment section in this forum page with format: "player1 (W) vs player2 (B), result, and game link"

then I will update the Pairing table from time to time.

* https://www.worldtimebuddy.com 

is good tool for time converter between countries.

For universal reference, pls always refer to UTC time when writing date/time in the page, especially for 2 countries in different continent.

If you & your opponent are US players, then it's fine to write date/time in EST reference.

*** If a player is forfeited, due to zero communication with opponent, or fail to show up in agreed schedule (without explanation afterward), they will be put on Hold in next Round until they contact back TD (Tournament Director) explaining.

**** For smooth and successful negotiation, please send offer to your opponent as early as you can. That way both of you will find the maximum flexibility, even more if both of you are in different continent with difficult time zone to deal with.

If 1 side had sent multiple offers but their opponent never replied until 3 days before deadline, they can let me know by sending copy of their chess com message/ conversation, then I will declare forfeit win.
