[edit] Illustrative Example of Team Championships

To illustrate how I imagine the Team Championships let's look at this fictional example:

There are 8 Teams on ChessHere:

• Team 1
• Team 2
• Team 3
• Team 4
• Team 5
• Team 6
• Team 7
• Team 8

All these Teams apply for Team Championships – 5 apply with one squad each, 2 apply with two squads and the biggest team applies with three squads. So we have 12 squads of 4 players:

• Team 1 Squad A
• Team 2 Squad A
• Team 3 Squad A
• Team 4 Squad A
• Team 5 Squad A
• Team 6 Squad A
• Team 6 Squad B
• Team 7 Squad A
• Team 7 Squad B
• Team 8 Squad A
• Team 8 Squad B
• Team 8 Squad C

We divide these 12 squads in two Divisions 6 squads in each:

Division I	Division II
Team 1 Squad A	Team 2 Squad A
Team 3 Squad A	Team 5 Squad A
Team 6 Squad A	Team 7 Squad B
Team 8 Squad A	Team 6 Squad A
Team 7 Squad A	Team 8 Squad B
Team 4 Squad A	Team 8 Squad C

Now we are ready to run 8 tournaments – 4 for each Division. For example Division I Board 2 tournament would look like this:

Player	Team	Vs 1	Vs 2	Vs 3	Vs 4	Vs 5	Vs 6	Points	Place
Board 2 player	Team 1 Squad A	XX
Board 2 player	Team 3 Squad A		XX
Board 2 player	Team 6 Squad A			XX
Board 2 player	Team 8 Squad A				XX
Board 2 player	Team 7 Squad A					XX
Board 2 player	Team 4 Squad A						XX

The other 3 tournaments in this Division would be similar. The same principles apply for Division II.

The Team table would look like this:

Team	Vs 1	Vs 2	Vs 3	Vs 4	Vs 5	Vs 6	Points	Place
Team 1 Squad A	XX
Team 3 Squad A		XX
Team 6 Squad A			XX
Team 8 Squad A				XX
Team 7 Squad A					XX
Team 4 Squad A						XX

How the squad results are calculated?

For example let's consider the result between Team 1 Squad A and Team 3 Squad A.

Imagine such results: In Division I Board 1 tournament Team 1 Squad A player wins against Team 3 Squad A player; In Division I Board 2 tournament Team 1 Squad A player draws against Team 3 Squad A player; In Division I Board 3 tournament Team 1 Squad A player loses against Team 3 Squad A player; In Division I Board 4 tournament Team 1 Squad A player wins against Team 3 Squad A player.

Team 1 Squad A has scored 2,5 points while Team 3 Squad A scores 1,5 point.

So the Team table would now look like this:

Team	Vs 1	Vs 2	Vs 3	Vs 4	Vs 5	Vs 6	Points	Place
Team 1 Squad A	XX	2,5					2,5	I
Team 3 Squad A	1,5	XX					1,5	II
Team 6 Squad A			XX
Team 8 Squad A				XX
Team 7 Squad A					XX
Team 4 Squad A						XX
