The Planning of 2011 County Championship Season

Some time last year the County Championships were set up so that any member of chess.com who lives in England can participate in a very exciting competition competing against other counties.

Well with people becoming busy it kind of fell by the way side.

SO myself and richkitch have set up this group to now replan the county championships ready in time for 2011.

COME ON PEOPLE PLEASE JOIN UP AND LETS MAKE THIS AN EXCITING COMPETITION!!

Don't see Buckingham Palace for artfizz :-( I'll give him a buzz.

It seems a bit harsh excluding the colonies - particularly the penal ones.

A bit limiting to say only admin or members of county teams listed above as I am not sure as a county player I want to join a random county group organised by admins who I don't know its not as if its anofficial county team group - happy to organise a county team but not really through the group you list for my county
