Robin you are making a mountain out of a mole hill. Have Edinburgh or Troon run into any problems in say the last 10 years playing in the Spens or Richardson with respect to disabled players? No they haven't. If this is passed for cs events will they have issues in the future? No because these guidelines put the onus on the disabled player to call out an issue long before it happens. It will mitigate issues. Steve is Gen Sec of the committee that drafted this. If 175 counties here in Tromso are in agreement with this and its implementation and that includes countries whos chess budget is less than one of our small clubs, who are we to disagree
