F1 The Frank Avison shield is a trophy offered
for annual competition between the C.M.s of the Association, subject to a
minimum entry of four teams. It is the property of the Association. The winning C.M. shall hold the trophy for
the season following that in which it was won.
F2 This tournament shall be controlled by the
Association's Hon. Controller for Correspondence Chess.
F3 Any entry fee will be determined by the A.G.M. Team lists must be received by the
Controller by October 15th each year.
F4 Teams shall consist of five players. C.M.s may enter more than one team, but no
player may represent more than one team.
F5 Players must be Members of the Association.
F6 When there are more than nine entries, the
Controller may form more than one division, in which case each division shall
be of six teams, except possibly the lowest, which shall consist of no less
than four teams and no more than nine teams.
The highest division will be the competition for the Frank Avison
Shield.
F7 Winners of the second or lower division shall
be eligible for promotion to the next higher division, in which case the lowest
placed team of the next higher division will normally be relegated. The
composition of the divisions will otherwise be at the discretion of the

positions will be resolved by a method to be determined by the Controller prior
to the start of the Competition.
