STaC GAMES- The next STaC week will be in June, 2012. Unit #125 held a 28 table ,2 Session Stratified STaC Swiss on Sunday, Dec.11th, 2011 at the Solon Senior Center. Thank you to all who played, and worked to make this event possible.
Silver Points!
NEW—All events stratified by average Masterpoints!!
What is a STaC?
A STaC is a Sectional Tournament, but it is held at many different sites throughout our District. "STaC" Stands for Sectional T ournament a t Clubs.
All games held in the same time session are included in the same event (the game must be open and have at least 5 tables to be in the main event). Since there are usually several sites, the results will be based on many tables, instead of just a few. Also, because the game is sectionally rated, the number of masterpoints per table is higher than in a regular club game.
The highest percentage in each stratification wins. But ALL points, even at the club level, are silver points.
There is a small extra charge for playing in a STaC, usually $1.50 per person.Managers: Make sure your club is registered! Players: Make sure you play!
