Chess Scotland Adult Selection Criteria

[amuir]

The clock is ticking. The next Olympiad is in September 2018. Selections should then be made in April 2018. The 6 month playing period is then October 2017 - March 2018. But it is already too late to enter some events e.g. Isle of Man, Gibraltar are booked up months in advance, where are the 8 FIDE games going to come from ? The Scottish is ruled out. Poor Colin McNab might miss his first Olympiad in a generation.
