ECF Ratings...

The English Chess Federation issue a players' rating list every month.  However, due to league competitions taking place over several months, the ratings used to establish a player's standard for the entire competition are geneally those issued in July, just prior to the commencment of the season.

 

For other events (ie weekend congresses) the organisers usually specify which month's ratings are to be used for seeding and match pairing purposes.

11 September 2020

 

The English Chess Federation have now revised their grading system so that a player's grade will now be shown as a four-figure number.  Furthermore the list wil be updated every month.

 

However, although such frequent changes will give a more accurate assessment of a player's current standing for when competing as an individual in congresses, most local leagues will probably maintain the current format of teams being selected throughout the season on the bassis of their players' grades at the start of that particular competition (ie: the July grades prior to the start of the season).

The former 3-digit player grading system used by the ECF has been changed to one of 4 digits to keep more in line with those of many other countries.

 

Therefore, if anyone is unsure as to how their new rating compares to that under the previous scheme then a conversion table ( by courtesy of South Hams Chess Club) should help and can be seen via the following link ...
