Equipment for Disabled Players
#53
Andy H,
I agree with you that this has to be done carefully.
It is only clocks that are the issue. I have never asked for provision of braille sets or dictaphones. Or equipment in wring in braille Big Grin which I will do at the Scottish just for you and Alex!! Big Grin
There are not many players who are visually handicapped, so not that many clocks are needed.
There are those who are deaf/blind, so digital clocks cannot be used in games involving them. David mentioned t in a previous response that an analogue clock would have to be used with an alternative time control.
I agree that this will require a lot of preparation before submitting for a lottery bid

The rules regarding the taking down of moves will need to take into account a players circumstances.
