I am interested in organising an international match between South Africa and another country. Right now I am in the process of ascertaining which of my countrymen are available and interested - and the response so far has been good.

Teams would consist of 7 - 10 players ( still to be decided ), a probable time control of 3 day timeout and 7 day timebank, but this is also open to negotiation. The match would consist of a series of challenges between individuals - one black and one white.

If anyone is interested in organising a team of their countrymen to accept this challenge, please get in touch with me.

i imagine that subscribers would take priority and seeing as there is already a dutch clan you may not get a place. i would be happy to play for the english!

It seems logical subscribers DON'T take priority because they can allways play these kind of matches with a clan...

whilst at the same time it seems logical that if one country wants to play another then their respective clans should take up arms 😉

Give me an idea though - see http://www.timeforchess.com/board/showthread.php?threadid=18433

Yeah, we could set up clans for it, but what's the point for a once off ( maybe ) match. Anyway, I'm not looking for people to take part, just for sumone to organize a team to play aginst SA. I can't organise both teams!

How about a match SA-rest of the world ;-)
(it may be difficult to find enough players otherwise)

In what rating class should players be?
