CCLA approves New Met League structure!

This is great news. The CCLA Board has approved the match and fee structure to support the New Met League activity. In the newsletter #2 (should be out tonight), you will see a full description of the partnerships that make New Met League possible.

Idaho looks like they will be the next to jump in. The President of the Idaho Chess Association is thinking they may start with an OTB Club vs. "The State". Since they are a rural state, this may be the way to go. Then OTB chess players across the state can compete against a big time Idaho chess club without travel.

This is a great example of the flexibility offered by New Met League, and the new exciting venues offered by this type of "hybrid" play. Webserver correspondence chess doesn't compete against OTB chess, it helps OTB chess players compete in new ways!
