Hi, can I just ask what are the rules for board order? Is it CS published grades, CS live grades, or FIDE published grades or FIDE live grades?
Also is the allowance 50 points or 100? Also, do teams need to have the same board order throughout the season or it can change?

I could very well be wrong so check with an arbiter---Andy Howie, John McNicol or Rhuaridh McKay
Div 1 is FIDE live grades with 50 point leeway.
Div 2 & 3 are Scottish live grades with 100 point leeway.
On any given day, board order must remain the same but board order can change from one day to the next depending on attending players and latest grades.

Thanks Glynis. Spot on.
As an SNCL arbiter team, we have been responding to individual specific queries over the past month but for the avoidance of doubt, please see the link to the up-to-date SNCL rules for the 2024-25 season.
As decided at the SNCL AGM in the spring, the 50 point leeway in Division 1 is now using FIDE standard ratings, but the Division 2 and 3 rules on this remain Chess Scotland live standard grading with a 100 point leeway.

where are the links to the live boards guys
RE: SNCL Teams entered by deadline!! - Andy Howie - 27-10-2024
We don't do live boards at SNCL, not enough time to set them up.
It takes 90 minutes to set up assuming everything works, we have 60 between arrival and start of round 1. It is not possible to actually do unless someone changes the laws of physics
