This is proving to be an exciting season with a lot of variety and an amazing amount of overall strength. We are running out of tables and chairs *(hey, that's a GOOD thing) but one more team would make an even number and make my life a lot easier. Individual players welcome, as teams are usually looking for fill-ins. It is also possible to form a team from the walk-ins. See the TCCL Forum for second round results and Third round pairings. As requested, the spreadsheet has returned. I will update the individual board standings next month.
