electronic device policy.


Cell phones will be collected for 5SS Weekend Championship events:

  1. Please turn in your cell phone to the TD before entering the tournament hall.
  2. This is an anti-cheating measure to protect players and the integrity of the game.
  3. This policy will be enforced on a trial basis.
  4. This policy will be applicable to only our 5SS weekend long championship tournaments (approx 5 times a year).
  5. You may retrieve your cell phone when your game is over.
  6. If you are seen with a cell phone in the restroom or on your person anywhere while in the midst of a round, this is grounds for an immediate forfeiture of your game or any other penalty as deemed appropriate by the tournament director.
  7. We may use electronic detection wands on players at any time. Random spot checks may occur. 
  8. Participation in events at The Chess Refinery means players accept and will adhere to the guidelines noted above.
