Champion of Champions for East Midlands Clubs?



Now the dust has finally settled, we offer our congratulations to all the 2012-13 League Champions from across the region;


Derbyshire                                      Chesterfield B
Leicestershire & Rutland              Wigston
Lincolnshire                                     Lincoln
Northamptonshire                         Northampton
Nottinghamshire                            Grantham

How about a one-day Champion of Champions event to decide the overall EM Club Champion? Either just before the summer holidays, or just after and as a curtain raiser to the new season.

Games could be 3 hours each (e.g. 30 moves in 75 minutes; 15 minutes to finish)
Round times: 10am – 1pm; 2 – 5pm; 6 – 9pm.

It could be done on the old European Club Cup basis i.e. 8 teams, three matches, everyone finishes placed 1st through 8th.

The three remaining places could go to the best second-placed teams in the leagues (percentage-wise), which would be Breadsall, Kettering & Nottingham Gambit, with Shepshed as reserves.

Any takers?
