Important point on keeping notation: All players are required to record moves in USCF rated play, until one or both players have less than 5 mins remaining on their clocks. For players in grades 2 and up who don't keep notation (unless director is presented with a valid religious/medical excuse), 5 mins will be deducted from their starting time. For players in grades K-1, 5% of their starting time will be deducted if they are not recording but their opponent is. If you have any concerns about this matter, or would like to request for your child to have a scorekeeping assistant, please contact the director before the start of the event.
