Attached on the Kingdom Chess Facebook page (linked below) is a wall chart in Excel format of a club challenge ladder that I've compiled. Players are listed informally by estimated rating strength. Anyone on the ladder may challenge a person on a higher rung to a match of G-25+10 games. Here are the basic rules:
1. Matches will be the best of four games. win = 1; loss = 0; draw = 1/2
2. Players will draw for first game colors by traditional pawns in hands selection. Colors will then alternate between the players until a winner is decided.
3. If the match is tied after four games, both players remain on their respective ladder rungs.
4. Games may be played at club chess time on Sunday afternoons at Cafe Lotti, at any other time(s) the players agree to, including via live games over the Internet.
5. Once a challenge is made, the four games must be completed within two weeks commencing with the next Sunday meeting at Cafe Lotti.

At the end of the year, the top three players will receive beautiful plastic medals, peer admiration and bragging rights for the coming year. 😁
If any who are not on the ladder want to join in, please let me know at any time and I will be happy to add you to the ladder.
