I cannot find it anywhere on the SNCL site(s), plus the invitation there is for last year with wrong dates! Certainly, as captain of a new entry, non-club specific team, this is the first I've heard of it.
Ian, never realised you were captain of a new entry. Then this matter concerns you more than me... :U
I got the invitation letter off the CS calendar: http://www.chessscotland.com/membership/...013-14.pdf never thought to check the SNCL website.
Quote:to imply or suggest that it would only be one up, thus the reasonable inference has to be that it would be two up, two down between the new divs 4 and 5. I have no problem with that.
I agree. 5 Divisions with normal promotion and relegation (ie 2 up & 2 down) would be my preference. It also gives teams more to play for... a 16 team Division 4 would mean a large number of teams would have nothing to play for when they could be vying for the Division 5 title and promotion to Division 4.
