The
GTCL Cup is Toronto’s Annual Rapid Team Chess Championship, welcoming teams in two categories:

  • Championship Teams


Each chess club in Toronto is invited to enter one or more club team in the championship. Team registration is open to any four players (plus one alternate, optionally) who represent the club. There is no rating cap in the Championship category.
The winning team will win the 2018 GTCL Cup for their club, and players will receive individual trophies from the GTCL.

  • U1800 Teams


This category is open to any four players (plus one alternate) who want to play together on a team, subject to a rating cap: the average rating of the top four players must be under 1800. This ensures parity among the various U1800teams. The best
team in this category will receive individual trophies from the GTCL.
