section, and is essentially an index to all graded events processed
during the season, sorted into appropriate categories with links to the individual event. The Check List of Graded Events is a "live" unsorted list of every uploaded event from the grading computer this season. League grading data appears in both the above lists with more detailed information available at the specialist League Page
An archive of all grading data since 1997 is also retained. We welcome any feedback on possible errors in the online data.

about the grading systen |
 The
Scottish Grading system attempts to give an accurate measure
of a player's strength, based purely on results. In this
introduction to the system, the Chief Grader
explains the basic theory behind the system, and shows you how
to calculate your grade. A subsection to the article deals
with games played outwith Scotland.
And
just to help you along, you can download a free Excel grading
calculator devised by Alex Clark of Dundee.
Area
Grader Information
Grading data is submitted by Congress organisers, League and
Club secretaries around Scotland. These "Area Graders"
collate the data in computer format. The data is then submitted
to Chess Scotland for processing. The latest versions of the
Area Grading Program are posted here. The file is updated
once a week with new players.
