FAQs

​Is it ok if our Students are not experienced?
Every chess tournament includes players of widely ranging experience levels, and this is a very good and healthy! 
At our tournaments everybody plays all rounds, win or lose, and as the day advances everybody will increasingly be playing against opponents of a similar playing strength/experience level. 
If a student has been learning chess at school for a couple of terms and is enthusiastic and wanting to improve, a 7-round tournament will be of great benefit to them.

Where is the tournament being held?
Once you've decided what tournament to enter using the Interschool Calendar, on the Tournament Entry Page (Tornelo), you can click on the Venue tab  to check out the Venue and address.
You should always go to the school office to sign-in when you arrive at a venue, and you will be guided from there to the tournament hall.

How do I pay for it?
There are 2 types of entries and payment methods:
School entry as a team - After the event, Schools will receive a tax-invoice reflecting the number of players who attended.
Individual entry by parents - Credit Card Payment upon entry (use the Enter as an Individual on Tornelo). Sorry, no cash payments.

Once I have registered my team on Tornelo, can I amend the players?
Once you have registered your team, you are allowed to remove, add or change players on Tornelo.
Please make the required changes as soon as you can and at least a day before the tournament.

What should players bring on the day?
A chess tournament should be treated as an excursion for non-hosting schools, and as an incursion for hosting schools.
And so, we advise participants to bring:
  • a water bottle,
  • lunch and snacks,
  • as well as their best game!

Who is the best contact if we are running late?
Please call our Customer Service Team on 1300 424 377.  They will inform the arbiter.
