beginning September 8, 2004, followed by up to three weeks of playoffs.

You play on a team, but if you don't have a team, you can join and we will
help you find one. Each week the match has four boards. A team can have as
many as six members. This is a Slow Time Control league. Players must have
played a minimum of 20 rated standard games to be eligible.

Teams may be entered by a team's captain at http://teamchess.org/captains/
Before any players, new or returning, can be on a team, they must sign up
or update their profiles at http://teamchess.org/players/
Please sign up only if you are available to play for the six weeks.

Players on the winning team in each of the five sections (Under 2200,
Under 2000, Under 1800, Under 1600, and Under 1300) receive one-month
