This is a links page for Unit 430 tournament information.  For future tournaments, there is a link to a pdf file of the tournament flyer (for printing on monochrome printers), a link to the location of the tournament on Google Maps, and a plaintext information page (for those who have trouble viewing pdf attachments or simply want to view the information in plain text).  Links in red boxes are not yet available; links in amber boxes are available but have not been confirmed as final by the Unit Board yet; links in green boxes are available and confirmed.

The sectional schedules come from the Unit 430 Generic Sectional Schedule, which is updated from time to time by the Unit Board.  This document contains a blueprint for all Unit sectionals: when they happen, which events take place at each sectional, what the start times are, and many other details.  The Generic Sectional Schedule can be viewed here.  This schedule was reviewed and updated for 2010.  Among the most important changes are: 10:00 start times (instead of 10:30) for final-day Swiss Team events, and open games are now stratified by AVERAGE masterpoint holding of a pair or a team, so even if you are over the limit you may still fit into a lower strat if your partner is (or your teammates are) under the limit.

Some of these links will open in a separate window or tab in your browser.  (If you get a separate window, it is time to update your browser and discover the pleasures of tabbed browsing.)  When you are finished looking at them, simply close the window or tab.  If your computer balks at viewing pdf files, download (or upgrade to) the free Adobe Acrobat Reader here.
