European Club Cup

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The European Club Cup , also known as the European Cup or European Championship of Clubs , is a European competition for club teams in chess . It is organized by the European Chess Union (ECU) under the patronage of the World Chess Federation FIDE . The European Club Cup has been held since 1976, initially every three years and later every two years. It has been held every year since 1992.

Various forms of tournaments have been used since the beginning of the event . Since 2000, the European Club Cup has been held in seven rounds according to the Swiss system . The game is played at a central location from September to October. There are two separate competitions: The European Club Cup is contested by teams of six players, with mixed teams being allowed. In the European Club Cup for women, which has been taking place since 1996 , only women's teams take part, a team consists of four players.

Countries that host national club championships (in Germany the German Chess League ) are allowed to send two teams to the competition. One representative from each of the other countries is entitled to participate. Additional teams come from countries with particularly strong national club championships. These include the five strongest national chess associations according to the association rankings maintained by the ECU.
