Thanks Derek, Andy B, Jim. Hadn’t thought of primary schools, of course they wouldn’t need CS membership…
I'm not sure the problem is with my motion though? Even the proposed new constitution said
“16.1. To be eligible to compete for any Scottish individual national championship title (including open to all, gender or age-related championship tournaments) a person must be a member of Chess Scotland and meet at least one of the following requirements:”
So would primary tournaments have had the same issue? I don't think primary tournaments are mentioned anywhere in the same place as adult eligibility criteria (doesn't mean this proposal doesn't need to be correct though ).
Derek and Jim – would it suffice to add “excluding primary school events”?
Jim thanks I see you've just answered below
So if this were changed to:
"To be eligible to compete for any Scottish individual national championship title (excluding primary school events), or to be eligible to represent Scotland in any international competition a person must be a member of Chess Scotland and ..."
Is the proposal OK vis-a-vis juniors then!? My concerns did relate mainly to the eligibility rules for adults and I thought people would chime in to correct any defin=ciencies on other fronts.
Cheers
