EUROPEAN Team Championship

admin

The European Team Championship is a team event for federations which are member of the European Chess Union. Organized for the first time in 1957, the tournament was at that time a double round robin for four teams which occurred at four-year intervals. In 1989 the format has changed to a Swiss system in 9 rounds. Since 1992 a Women European Team Championship was introduced and since 1997 the event became a two-years cycle for teams of six then later four players. In 2009 at Novi Sad 38 men teams and 28 women teams registered.
