Robin refers to this post:
To take the second point first, I would have thought that a junior tournament versus English opponents would be regarded as domestic. This second point is probably included in the first point anyway – if so then there is but one issue.
The first point could be an issue - though is it not then an issue with item 16.2 also? (Says juniors need an SCO code registered with FIDE)
I’ve no knowledge of how CS handles SCO codes for juniors, but assuming Derek is right could this not be simply remedied with a tweak - for juniors, the FIDE SCO code requirement could be waived at CS’s discretion.
Cheers

Does this include the Primary Individual? The Scottish Girls Championship? Are you saying that kids would have to be registered with FIDE and members of CS before they can take part in these kids competitions?
Alastair White Wrote:When we are talking about representing Scotland in international competition, this applies not only to the Olympiad team but also many other gender and age-related competitions too, both team and individual.
So kids would need to be registered with FIDE before they could play at, say, the Liverpool Quadrangular?
