The Individual Tournaments: These comprise the Club Championship, the Major and the Minor Tournaments (entries permitting). They are run as all-play-all events throughout the season. The winners of the Major and Minor have automatic right of promotion to the tournament above in the following season.
Speed chess: The season begins with the Lightning Championship for the Nurse Cup on the opening night of the season. This is "buzzer" chess at 10 seconds a move. The closing night of the season is reserved for the Rapidplay Championship for the Laurie Ratcliff Cup. This is usually 10 minutes on each clock per game.
