New NEO Chess Club Ladder
The NEO Chess Club has started a club ladder, which is a permanent tournament. This ongoing event provides a friendly, but competitive way for members to meet each other, while establishing a club ranking system. The object is to climb the ladder and maintain the top spot. Do you have what it takes?
2017 Spring Open
Our first tournament, the 2017 Spring Open saw 166 players join the event, with an average rating of 1620 and we look forward to many interesting games. The favorites to win are festa (2193), flagellum (2188) and Dr.SheldonCooper (2181). This event is part of the Champion of Tournaments competition, as we find the champion of the year's club tournaments.
Future Tournaments
Future NEO Chess Club tournaments will have a 7 day sign up period. The club championship will begin on June 12 and you must be a club member to play. Champion of Tournaments points will apply. Next year the club championship will be held in January.
The chessmail Chess Clubs
Chessmail has a very active community of chess players and the heart of it is the club community. There is forty clubs in all, with Chess Connection being the largest, with 155 members. Coming in second is TSVM Berlin with 95 members and Auto-Reloading-Team in third with 91 members. The two oldest clubs, Der Neue Club 2.0 and Crazy Chessmail Clüb have been in existence since September 2010. Many of the clubs hold regular tournaments, making chessmail a wonderful place to play competitive chess in large tournaments.

Champion of Tournaments Rules
1) This competition is a measurement of tournament results for the year for tournaments run by the NEO Chess Club.
2) Any event that extends into the next year will be scored to the year in which it started.
3) In each round players score 1 point for a win, ½ point for a draw and 0 for a loss. Their percentage score for that round will be multiplied by the round, then times 10 to determine points scored.
4) Example: A player scores 6/6 pts. in rd. 1, 6/6 pts. in rd. 2, 5.5/6 pts. in rd. 3, and 1.5/4 pts. in rd. 4.
5) This is scored 1.000 x 10 = 10, 1.000 x 20 = 20, .917 x 30 = 27.51, .375 x 40 = 15
6) then add those together . . . 10 + 20 + 27.51 + 15 = 72.51 points awarded.
7) The player with the highest points at the end of the year is the champion.
