Remarks
Victories without a fight are taken into account in the individual balance sheets, defeats without a fight are not taken into account.
The results of the preliminary round and the final round are summarized in the individual balance sheets.
A total of 29 players from the clubs Wood Green Hilsmark Kingfisher, Guildford A&DC and Barbican Chess Club were used in both the first and the second team. The results of these players are listed separately for each team.
Stephen Gordon's GM norm was achieved from 10 games.
Sheila Barth Sahl was formerly called Sheila Barth Berntsen.
