I issued this to teams:
I am enclosing rules and entrants for the Glasgow Schools Chess League.
The attached rules haven’t changed since two years ago.
Last year there was no entry due to covid and expectedly the numbers are low with only 10 teams entered.
You should play all the teams in your section and you can also play teams in a different section though these games will not count for the championship.
The tournament will run till mid June.
New teams will be allowed to enter at any time.
Matches can be played either at a school or over the internet as agreed by the schools involved.
I intend giving results and tables once a month.
Any questions please ask.

A shield for the Primary tournament has been purchased and I have received quite a few emails about this section.
