Sections: Note that all sections have grade level and rating requirements. Players with more than 10
rated games are not eligible for the non-rated sections. Players in the rated sections must be registered
with http://www.uschess.org before the tournament. In unrated games, notation is not required
and clocks are not required but may be used if both players agree. In rated games, notation is
optional for grade K-3 players in U500/U900, but a player may lose the right to make claims
requiring a score sheet; notation is required for all other rated players. Rated players are expected
to bring their own clocks. Non-Rated sections will not use clocks unless it is agreed to by both
players or if the tournament director places a clock on players in the last few minutes of a round.
